Lung, 10/21/09
Lim KG – Chronic cough is a common symptom–based diagnostic challenge for primary care physicians and respiratory specialists. Measurement of exhaled nitric oxide is a convenient, reproducible, and inexpensive point–of–service test. It can simplify the evaluation process of chronic cough by providing information regarding the state of airway inflammation.

This has the effect of reducing empirical trials for cough–variant asthma or eosinophilic bronchitis. The inclusion of exhaled nitric oxide in the diagnostic approach to chronic cough should be considered.
