Treating cough problems non-pharmacologically

What is it about?

Cough disorders are managed by medical, procedural, and behavioral approaches. Speech-language pathologists are responsible for providing nonpharmacological treatments. Speech therapy for cough disorders centers on the malleability of cough and reshaping higher level cognitive pathways of cough. This review describes how speech therapy offers a holistic and complementary approach to other treatments for cough problems.

Why is it important?

Recognition is growing across disciplines about the significant, unmet needs in cough research and clinical practice. This work synthesizes key findings from recent basic science and clinical studies that demonstrate the favorable role of nonpharmacological treatments for pathological cough.
