Wenn mehr Platz auf der Folie ist, würde ich das etwas ausformulieren. In dem zweiten Link kann man sehen, dass das Tape auch im Gesicht verklebt wird; daher würde ich nicht von "respiratory tract" sprechen.

AD, Autogenic Drainage


Explanation:
I think "ATG" stands for "Autogene Drainage" which is an "Atemtherapietechnik" - Chest Physical Therapy technique.
This technique is often used in "Mukoviszidose" - Cystic Fibosis, CF.
