How does a speech therapist approach cough assessm $How does a speech therapist approach cough assessment? The SLT Assessment: 1. Understanding the type of cough, a description of the cough or the 'coughs' that some patients have. Identifying the triggers. Which coughs can be controlled, which cant. Current control strategies. A cough diary may be necessary. 2. Given the high prevalence of coexisting upper airway symptoms in any cough assessment it is vital to ask about and assess for other symptoms including dysphonia and voice history, dysphagia and swallow history, Inducible laryngeal obstruction symptoms. 3. Ensuring that sufficient medical investigations and examinations have been completed to help exclude causes including laryngoscopy, spirometry, possible Chest CT, objective swallow measures if indicated. 4. Medical conditions e.g. asthma, reflux, rhinitis, depression/anxiety should be treated/well managed and a trial off ACE Inhibitors should be discussed with the medical team. 5. Assess the impact of lifestyle, social factors and emotional factors including vocal behaviours. Important observations and examinations: 🔹Breathing patterns 🔹Voice screening 🔹Muscle tension 🔹Cough frequency 🔹Swallow assessment 🔹Cranial nerve assessment. Symptom based questionnaires: Cough Severity Index. Shembel et al 2013. The Laryngoscope. Leicester Cough Questionnaire - Birring et al 2003.
