Cough expired volume and airflow rates during sequential induced cough
Cough effectiveness is determined by a combination of volume of air expired and maximum expiratory airflow rate. Studies of cough sensitivity identify cough thresholds based on at least 2 or 5-cough re-accelerations to a stimulus, however to date no study has examined the interplay between the dis...
