There was a reduction in chest turgidity observed. No signs of allergic reactions were noted. The patient's oxygen saturation levels maintained at 95-97%, which is a good sign.

Considering the state of the patient at the start of therapy, there has been substantial progress in the right direction. Mr. Martinez reported an improvement in symptoms, including decreased frequency of coughing and fatigue during the day. His overall response to the treatment has been positive, and he is showing a gradual recovery.
Future Therapy Plans
Patient therapy will be continued for Mr. Martinez as pertinently needed based on his responses. The plan is to maintain the pace of recovery with the continuation of nebulizer therapy, calming exercises and additional medications if required. The therapy session frequency will be evaluated based on the maintained progress. Regular monitoring and reevaluation will be done to ensure effective treatment and comfort for the patient.
