Show Notes
"Even now, many patients remain misunderstood and mislabelled by their clinician and their family, and even by our society."
In this instalment of the ERS Monograph podcast, Guido Marchi (Early Career Member representative for the Monograph) meets with the Guest Editors of Chronic Cough: Woo-Jung Song, Lorcan McGarvey, Peter S.P. Cho and Kian Fan Chung. They reflect on the way in which chronic cough has evolved from being just a symptom of other diseases to an independent condition recognised for its complexity. In a lively and informative discussion, they cover topics such as antitussive development, the key tools and methods of chronic cough assessment, and the importance of a multidisciplinary team in the cough clinic.
