What does current literature, SLTs & patients tell us about terminology & Ax in “laryngeal hypersensitivity related dysphagia”?
Take a look at our NEW publication @ijlcd 🙌🏻

This is going to be a fab day for any SLTs working with individuals presenting with the fascinating overlap of respiratory and laryngeal symptoms…whether that be within a broad caseload or specific 💫

There's a new meta-analysis by Yi et al. (2024) in @TARespirDis about #cough suppression therapies for #ChronicCough.
Good indicators for this nonpharmacological tx, but more #RCTs are warranted.
