The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how doing mechanical insufflation (MI) using a mechanical insufflator-exsufflator (MI-E) device affects breathing in early amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This will be a single-center, single-arm study of MI in 20 patients with ALS at Penn. Based on prior research, we believe that 6-months of MI may slow decline in cough strength, measured as peak cough flow (PCF). Participants will perform MI using a device designed for mechanical insufflation-... Read More
