![Page 2: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Case• MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22– A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month
history of cough. Three months ago hypertension was diagnosed, for which he takes HTCZ and benazepril. He attributes his cough to the change of weather. He has a hx of GERD that is well controlled on PPI. No hx of asthma.
– Which of the following would be the most appropriate next step?• CT scan of sinuses• pH probe• Methacholine challenge testing• Stop ACEI• Allergy testing

Evaluation Of Nonsmokers Presenting With Chronic Cough
• If on ACEI discontinue ACEI• Consider UACS, Asthma, GERD as most
common diagnoses• Do not use the patient’s description of timing
of onset or production of sputum to diagnose• The etiology of some cough syndromes is
multifactorial
Pratter MR. Overview of common causes of chronic cough: ACCP evidence-based clinical practice guidelines. Chest 2006; 129(suppl):59S–62S
![Page 6: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Chronic Cough Syndrome Caused By Rhinosinus Disease
• Formerly labeled post nasal drip syndrome• ACCP recommends calling this upper airway cough syndrome• Ddx: Allergic rhinitis, postinfectious rhinitis, bacterial sinusitis,
rhinitis due to irritants, occupational, medicamentosa, anatomic abnormalities
• Evaluation includes a combination of criteria, including symptoms, physical examination findings, radiographic findings, and, ultimately, the response to specific therapy

Chronic Cough Syndrome Caused By Rhinosinus Disease
• Draining into throat, need to clear throat, tickle in throat, congestion, nasal discharge, hoarseness, wheeze
• If obvious, treat with 1st generation A/D• If not responsive, image sinuses• Empiric therapy with 1st generation A/D• An empiric trial of therapy aids in diagnosis• An empiric trial of therapy should be given before
considering exhaustive work-up

Chronic Cough Syndrome Caused By Rhinosinus Disease
• In the setting of the common cold;– Treat with A/D, consider Naprosyn– Nonsedating antihistamines do not work– Even if productive of sputum do not use
antibiotics routinely
![Page 9: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Cough And Asthma
• May be a symptom of asthma or a distinct entity, cough variant asthma
• Spirometry with bronchodilator, and methacholine challenge testing used to evaluate
• Treat with inhaled bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroids
• Can only diagnose this as cause if syndrome is responsive to therapy
![Page 10: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Cough And Asthma
• Consider sputum eosinophil level for steroid responsiveness
• If not responsive or noncompliant, consider leukotriene receptor antagonist
• May consider oral steroids if severe

Clinical Profile That Predicts That Chronic Cough Is Likely Due to GERD Chronic cough
• Not exposed to environmental irritants nor a present smoker• Not taking an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor• Chest radiograph is normal or shows nothing more than stable,
inconsequential scarring• Symptomatic asthma has been ruled out: • Cough has not improved with asthma therapy, or Methacholine
inhalation challenge is negative• Upper airway cough syndrome due to rhinosinus diseases has
been ruled out: First-generation H1 -antagonist has been used and cough failed to improve, and “Silent” sinusitis has been ruled out
• Nonasthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis has been ruled out: Properly performed sputum studies are negative, or
• Cough has not improved with inhaled/systemic corticosteroids
Irwin, RS Chronic cough due to gastroesophageal reflux disease: ACCP evidence-based clinical practice guidelines. Chest 2006;129(suppl),80S-94S
![Page 12: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cough Associated With GERD
• Suspected by clinical profile• Treat if suspected, even if they are otherwise
asymptomatic• Cannot rule out on clinical profile• Cannot rule out GERD as cause of cough until it is
fully treated/evaluated• Esophageal pH probe is the most sensitive and
specific test for acid reflux
![Page 13: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Cough Associated With GERD
• Normal esophagoscopy does not rule out GERD
• Barium esophography is the test of choice to evaluate for non-acid reflux cough complex
• Esophageal manometry may be useful
Rudolph C, Mazur L, Liptak G, et al. Guidelines for evaluation and treatment of gastroesophageal reflux in infants and children: recommendations of the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 2001; 32(suppl):S1–S31

Cough Associated With GERD
• If initial treatment fails, escalate therapy (mixed modalities)
• Evaluate for effective therapy• Lifestyle changes– Anti-reflux diet that includes no > 45 g of fat in 24 h and no
coffee, tea, soda, chocolate, mints, citrus products, including tomatoes, or alcohol, no smoking, and limiting vigorous exercise that will increase intraabdominal pressure
![Page 15: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Spectrum of Options for Treating Chronic Cough Due to GERD
• Anti-reflux medical therapy• Diet• Lifestyle changes• Smoking• Exercising• Consuming alcohol• Medications – Acid suppression - PPI, PPI/BID, H2 blockers– Prokinetic
• Address risk factors/Treat other causes of cough • Treat comorbid conditions– Obesity– Obstructive sleep apnea– Consider changing medications for comorbid conditions
• Anti-reflux surgery

Nonasthmatic Eosinophilic Bronchitis
• Common cause of cough 10-30% cases• Diagnosed by ruling out asthma and showing
induced sputum/bronchial wash eosinophilia, or response to ICS
• Evaluate for allergen or occupational cause• Avoidance is treatment of choice if cause found

Nonasthmatic Eosinophilic Bronchitis
• Treat with inhaled corticosteroids• If firmly diagnosed and not responsive
consider burst of oral systemic steroids • Evaluate for reduction of eosinophilia • vs Asthma-mast cellsbiopsy

Post-infectious Cough
• No antibiotics unless sinusitis or Bordetella pertussis
• Consider trial of ipratropium to attenuate cough
• If this does not work consider trial of ICS• If severe paroxysms – prednisone 30-40mg
short finite period, only when GERD, asthma, UACS ruled out

Cough stimulus
• Afferent limb of cough reflex • Sensory receptors stimulated• Mucus volume, production, consistency,
ciliary action• Neural brainstem elements • Spinal motoneurons innervate respiratory
muscles
![Page 27: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Suppressant Therapy• Old term - non-specific therapy• Peripheral antitussive agents• Centrally acting antitussive agents• Inhibit efferent limb and paralytic agents• When cough is elevated over what is required
to defend airways• No evidence that therapy prevents cough
![Page 29: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Suppressant Therapy
• Short-term basis • Symptomatic relief• Etiology of cough is unknown• Specific therapy requires time to become
effective• Specific therapy ineffective, ie inoperable lung
cancer
![Page 30: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Drugs that alter mucocillary factors
• Conflicting study data on Guaifenesin, Ipratropium, Tiotropium, and Acetylcysteine
• Few drugs suppress cough consistently• In chronic bronchitis mucolytics are not
recommended• In URI or chornic bronchitis the only
anticholinergic recommended is ipratropium bromide
![Page 31: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Peripheral antitussive agents
• Suppress excitability of sensory receptors• 2 drugs recommended by evidence based guidelines
in ACCP• Not available in US• Benzonatate - Tetracaine congener with antitussive
properties• Topical anesthetic action on the respiratory stretch
receptors
![Page 32: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Centrally acting antitussive agents
• Work on brainstem CNS• Chronic bronchitis codeine and
dextromethorphan recommended for short-term relief
• Cough secondary to URI limited efficacy, not recommended
![Page 33: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Inhibit efferent limb and paralytic agents
• In patients with chronic or acute cough requiring symptomatic relief, drugs that affect the efferent limb of the cough reflex are NOT RECOMMENDED– Baclofen - decreased cough secondary to ACE-inhibitor in
one study, not yet tested in DBPCT
• During intubation with GETA neuromuscluar blocking agents such as succinylcholine recommended to suppress coughing
![Page 34: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Protussive effects – increase cough clearance
• Bronchitis – hypertonic saline solution recommended short term basis to increase cough clearance
![Page 35: Approach To The Patient With Cough. Case MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22 – A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month history of cough. Three.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649f2f5503460f94c48906/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Case• MKSAP 13 – Pulmonary Question #22– A 47 yo black male is evaluated because of a 2-month
history of cough. Three months ago hypertension was diagnosed, for which he takes HTCZ and benazepril. He attributes his cough to the change of weather. He has a hx of GERD that is well controlled on PPI. No hx of asthma.
– Which of the following would be the most appropriate next step?• CT scan of sinuses• pH probe• Methacholine challenge testing• Stop ACEI• Allergy testing

Referral To A Cough Specialist
• If no cause is found with previous algorithmic approach referral is appropriate
• Most involved evaluations involve specialists; GI, ENT, Pulmonary, Cardiology
• Consider pulmonary consult for assistance if needed
