The Evolving Clinical Practice of Chronic Cough.
Mayo Clinic Proceedings 2022 June
Chronic cough, defined as a cough lasting for greater than 8 weeks, accounts for a substantial number of primary care and specialist consultations in the United States. Although cough can arise from a myriad number of serious respiratory diseases, attention has traditionally focused on diagnosing and treating gastroesophageal reflux, upper airway cough syndrome, and eosinophilic airway inflammation (asthma and nonasthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis) in patients with normal chest imaging. The newly described paradigm and entity of cough hypersensitivity syndrome (CHS) becomes useful when the etiology of cough remains elusive or when the cough remains refractory despite appropriate therapy for underlying causes. We present an update on the evolving understanding of refractory chronic cough and/or unexplained chronic cough as manifestations of laryngeal hypersensitivity and CHS. This includes a focus on understanding the pathophysiology underlying current and novel therapeutics for CHS, while also ensuring that common causes of chronic cough continue to be evaluated and treated in a systematic multidisciplinary manner.
