RESUMO

PURPOSE: Sensorimotor cough skill training (CST) has been shown to improve cough strength, as well as facilitate changes during training (i.e., motor performance) and generalization to untrained tasks (i.e., motor learning). However, there is a gap in our understanding of the effects of voluntary CST (without sensory stimuli) on motor performance and learning. Furthermore, the contribution of physiologic factors, such as lung volume, a driver of cough strength in healthy adults, and treatment-specific factors, such as biofeedback, remains unexamined. METHOD: Twenty individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) completed pre- and post-CST single voluntary, sequential voluntary, and reflex cough testing. Participants were randomized to biofeedback or no biofeedback groups. They completed one CST session involving 25 trials of voluntary coughs, with the treatment target set 25% above baseline peak flow. Participants were instructed to "cough hard" to exceed the target. In the biofeedback group, participants received direct visualization of the target line in real time. RESULTS: Cough peak flow showed positive improvements in motor performance (ß = .02; 95% credible interval [CI]: 0.01, 0.03) and learning (ß = .26; 95% CI: 0.03, 0.47). Changes in lung volume from pre- to post-CST did not predict treatment response. No differences in treatment response were detected between the biofeedback groups. CONCLUSIONS: A single session of voluntary CST improved voluntary cough motor performance and learning. Although lung volume increased during CST, changes to lung volume did not predict treatment response. These findings demonstrate the potential of voluntary CST to improve motor performance and motor learning among individuals with PD and cough dysfunction.

RESUMO

Cerebellar ataxias are neurological conditions with a high prevalence of aspiration pneumonia and dysphagia. Recent research shows that sensorimotor cough dysfunction is associated with airway invasion and dysphagia in other neurological conditions and may increase the risk of pneumonia. Therefore, this study aimed to characterize sensorimotor cough function and its relationship with ataxia severity. Thirty-seven participants with cerebellar ataxia completed voluntary and/or reflex cough testing. Ataxia severity was assessed using the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA). Linear multilevel models revealed voluntary cough peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) estimates of 2.61 L/s and cough expired volume (CEV) estimates of 0.52 L. Reflex PEFR (1.82 L/s) and CEV (0.34 L) estimates were lower than voluntary PEFR and CEV estimates. Variability was higher for reflex PEFR (15.74% coefficient of variation [CoV]) than voluntary PEFR (12.13% CoV). 46% of participants generated at least two, two-cough responses following presentations of reflex cough stimuli. There was a small inverse relationship between ataxia severity and voluntary PEFR (ß = -0.05, 95% CI: -0.09 - -0.01 L) and ataxia severity and voluntary CEV (ß = -0.01, 95% CI: -0.02 - -0.004 L/s). Relationships between reflex cough motor outcomes (PEFR ß = 0.03, 95% CI: -0.007-0.07 L/s; CEV ß = 0.007, 95% CI: -0.004-0.02 L) and ataxia severity were not statistically robust. Results indicate that voluntary and reflex cough sensorimotor dysfunction is present in cerebellar ataxias and that increased severity of ataxia symptoms may impact voluntary cough function.
