120. Pulm PEEPs & Irish Thoracic Society: Understanding Refractory Chronic Cough

<p>We&#8217;re excited today to launch our first episode in collaboration with the <a href="https://irishthoracicsociety.com/">Irish Thoracic Society </a>and their <a href="https://irishthoracicsociety.com/education/podcast/">podcast series</a>. The Irish Thoracic Society represents respiratory professionals throughout Ireland and is dedicated to championing excellence in the prevention, diagnosis, and clinical care of respiratory disease through its work in advocacy, education and research. </p> <p>In today&#8217;s episode, we explore the complex and often overlooked world of refractory chronic cough — a condition that can significantly impact patients’ quality of life but is frequently misunderstood or underdiagnosed. With insights from leading respiratory specialists in Ireland and the United States, we discuss the latest thinking on diagnosis, management, and emerging treatments aimed at improving outcomes for patients and helping clinicians navigate this challenging area of respiratory medicine.</p> <p>Joining us are renowned experts Professor Lorcan McGarvey and Professor Brendan Canning, both internationally recognised leaders in respiratory medicine and cough research. Together, they share their perspectives on the neurobiology of chronic cough, the considerable morbidity experienced by patients, and how clinicians can approach diagnostic investigations more effectively.</p> <p>We also explore current treatment strategies and promising new therapies on the horizon as chronic cough increasingly gains recognition as a disease in its own right — rather than simply a symptom. Whether you&#8217;re a clinician, researcher, or simply interested in advances in respiratory medicine, this episode offers valuable insights into a condition that is finally receiving the attention it deserves.</p> <p class="has-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4e41a482167f9b947a5321b95adbb5d7"><strong>Meet Our Co-Hosts</strong></p> <p class="has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-92006dbdc8a192a5c6a132ede73fbc73"><br>Marissa O’Callaghan is an Irish trained Respiratory fellow currently undertaking a post-doc fellow working in Erasmus MC Rotterdam in the Netherlands.

Prior guidelines existed from individual societies, but nothing this comprehensive had been updated in roughly five to six years.</p> <p><strong>New PE clinical categories (A through E):</strong></p> <p>One of the most impactful changes is replacing the old &#8220;massive/submassive&#8221; and &#8220;low/intermediate/high risk&#8221; labels with five categories that form a severity continuum. Category A is subclinical (incidental PE found on imaging in asymptomatic patients). Category B covers symptomatic but low-severity patients. Category C is where much of the clinical complexity lives — symptomatic, hemodynamically stable patients subdivided into C1, C2, and C3 based on RV function and biomarkers. Category D represents incipient cardiopulmonary failure (transient hypotension, normotensive shock with end-organ dysfunction). Category E is frank cardiopulmonary failure, with E2 being the sickest — refractory or recurrent cardiac arrest. Respiratory modifiers (hypoxia requiring supplemental oxygen) layer onto C, D, and E.</p> <p><strong>Diagnostic approach:</strong></p> <p>Clinical evaluation comes first — history, exam, and validated decision tools (Wells score, revised Geneva, PERC). If clinical probability is low and D-dimer is normal, imaging can be safely avoided. If either is concerning, imaging is warranted. CTPA remains the preferred imaging modality due to superior sensitivity, specificity, wide availability, and ability to assess clot burden and alternative diagnoses. VQ scanning is still appropriate when CTPA is contraindicated, and VQ SPECT offers better reproducibility and specificity than traditional planar VQ if available. Echocardiography is not a diagnostic test for PE but is important for risk stratification — RV size, TAPSE, and tissue Doppler measures all contribute prognostic information.</p> <p><strong>Anticoagulation updates:</strong></p> <p>Anticoagulation remains the cornerstone of treatment. For patients potentially needing advanced therapies (C3, D, E), parenteral anticoagulation is started first. A notable recommendation: low molecular weight heparin is generally preferred over unfractionated heparin, based on evidence showing more effective VTE risk reduction, more predictable pharmacokinetics, no need for routine monitoring, lower rates of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, and no increase in major bleeding. The committee acknowledged this may create discomfort for clinicians accustomed to unfractionated heparin&#8217;s easy reversibility, but the difficulty of achieving and maintaining therapeutic levels with UFH was a significant concern.</p> <p><strong>Advanced therapies:</strong></p> <p>Catheter-based thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, systemic thrombolysis, and surgical embolectomy all received mostly class 2B recommendations (&#8220;can consider&#8221;) for C3 and D categories, reflecting that current evidence shows improvement in short-term surrogate measures (RV/LV ratio, hemodynamics) but lacks definitive hard outcome data on mortality. For category E1 patients, recommendations are stronger (class 2A). Multiple trials are expected soon — HI-PEITHO, PEERLESS-2, PE-TRACT, PERSEVERE, TORPEDO, and PROG — that should substantially inform future updates.</p> <p><strong>PERT teams:</strong></p> <p>Pulmonary embolism response teams are encouraged, particularly for C3, D, and E patients. They&#8217;ve been shown to reduce length of stay. For institutions without PERT capability, establishing consultation networks with larger centers is recommended.</p> <p><strong>Post-PE follow-up:</strong></p> <p>Patients shouldn&#8217;t be &#8220;left in the wilderness&#8221; after discharge. The guidelines recommend communication within the first week to ensure understanding of diagnosis and treatment, an in-person visit at or before three months to assess for persistent symptoms and discuss anticoagulation duration, ongoing surveillance for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease, and periodic reassessment for those on extended anticoagulation.</p> <p><strong>Infographics</strong></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="606" src="https://www.pulmpeeps.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Pulm-PEEPs-PE-infographic-Image-Small-1024x606.png" alt="" class="wp-image-2334" srcset="https://pulmpeeps.blubrry.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Pulm-PEEPs-PE-infographic-Image-Small-1024x606.png 1024w, https://pulmpeeps.blubrry.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Pulm-PEEPs-PE-infographic-Image-Small-300x178.png 300w, https://pulmpeeps.blubrry.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Pulm-PEEPs-PE-infographic-Image-Small-768x455.png 768w, https://pulmpeeps.blubrry.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Pulm-PEEPs-PE-infographic-Image-Small-500x296.png 500w, https://pulmpeeps.blubrry.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Pulm-PEEPs-PE-infographic-Image-Small.png 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure> <p></p>

118. Pulm PEEPs Pearls: Spontaneous Breathing Trials

<p>Furf and Monty are back with another Pulm PEEPs Pearls episode. The topic of today&#8217;s discussion is an often discussed, but often misunderstood, test; the methacholine challenge. They&#8217;ll review when to utilize this test, how it should be performed, and the appropriate interpretation.</p> <p class="has-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6fa1d94b250df8a532f1a91298c976a7"><strong>Contributors</strong></p> <p>This episode was prepared with research by Pulm PEEPs Associate Editor George Doumat.</p> <p>Dustin Latimer, another Pulm PEEPs Associate Editor, assisted with audio and video editing.</p> <p class="has-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b8bc5c4bc71c04cbf17cb6afc50fc34e"><strong>Key Learning Points</strong></p> <p><strong>What the Test Measures</strong></p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Methacholine challenge is a direct bronchial provocation test of airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), a core physiologic feature of asthma.</li> <li>Anyone will bronchoconstrict at high enough concentrations — the test looks for an abnormal threshold.</li> <li>The key endpoint is the PC20: the methacholine concentration causing a 20% fall in FEV1. <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Abnormal in adults: PC20 ≤ 8–16 mg/mL</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p><strong>Test Performance</strong></p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Meta-analyses: pooled sensitivity ~60%, specificity ~90%.</li> <li>Real-world cohorts: sensitivity 55–62%, specificity 56–100% (varies by population, protocol, and threshold used).</li> <li>Not a standalone yes/no test — best used as part of a broader diagnostic pathway.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Where It Fits in the Asthma Workup</strong></p> <p>The test belongs in a stepwise approach:</p> <ol start="1" class="wp-block-list"> <li>Step 1: Spirometry + bronchodilator response</li> <li>Step 2: Add FeNO and/or peak flow variability (if available)</li> <li>Step 3: If the picture is still unclear → methacholine challenge</li> </ol> <p>It is most useful for symptomatic patients with normal spirometry and no bronchodilator reversibility. Given its cost, mild risk, and discomfort, it should not be a first-line test — most asthma diagnoses do not require it.</p> <p><strong>Technique and Medication Prep</strong></p> <p><strong>Technique</strong></p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>ERS guidelines favor tidal breathing over deep inspiratory maneuvers.</li> <li>Deep breaths can be bronchoprotective and blunt the response, reducing sensitivity — especially in mild or well-controlled asthma.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Medication Washout (to Avoid False Negatives)</strong></p> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table class="has-fixed-layout"><thead><tr><td><strong>Medication Class</strong></td><td><strong>Washout Period</strong></td></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Short-acting beta-agonists (SABA)</td><td>≥ 6 hours</td></tr><tr><td>Long-acting beta-agonists (LABA)</td><td>~24 hours</td></tr><tr><td>Ultra-long-acting beta-agonists</td><td>~48 hours</td></tr><tr><td>Short-acting anticholinergics (e.g., ipratropium)</td><td>~12 hours</td></tr><tr><td>Long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA, e.g., tiotropium)</td><td>7 days</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Inhaled corticosteroids, leukotriene blockers, and antihistamines do not significantly affect the test acutely — continue these. Withdrawing ICS also carries its own risk for asthma patients.</li> <li>Practical tip: Spell out exactly what to hold and when — for both the patient and the PFT lab — at the time the test is ordered.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Interpreting Results</strong></p> <p>Negative Test (PC20 &gt; 16 mg/mL)</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Very high negative predictive value in symptomatic adults.</li> <li>Makes current asthma quite unlikely (assuming proper test conduct).</li> <li>This is the test&#8217;s greatest strength: it is an excellent rule-out test.</li> </ul> <p>Positive Test (PC20 ≤ 8–16 mg/mL)</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>More nuanced — airway hyperresponsiveness is not unique to asthma.</li> <li>Can be positive in: chronic cough, allergic rhinitis, COPD, and even some healthy asymptomatic individuals.</li> <li>A positive result raises probability but must be interpreted alongside the clinical story, variable respiratory symptoms, peak flow variability, FeNO, and ICS response.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Safety and Risks</strong></p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Overall, the test is quite safe; significant adverse effects are rare.</li> <li>Temporary breathing discomfort is expected (bronchoconstriction is being induced).</li> <li>Severe bronchospasm is possible: <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>A trained clinician should be available; SABA inhaler/nebulizer must be immediately on hand; a physician should be reachable in the facility.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Contraindications / cautions: <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Avoid if FEV1 &lt; 70% predicted or &lt; 1–1.5 L (baseline obstruction greatly increases risk).</li> <li>Avoid within 3 months of an acute cardiac event (rare risk of cardiac events with unstable cardiac disease).</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p><strong>Five Pearls — Quick Recap</strong></p> <ol start="1" class="wp-block-list"> <li>What it tests: Methacholine challenge is a direct test of AHR with high specificity but variable sensitivity — it belongs inside a diagnostic pathway, not as a standalone asthma test.</li> <li>When to use it: Most useful for symptomatic patients with normal spirometry and no bronchodilator response, after FeNO and peak flow variability have been considered.</li> <li>Technique and meds matter: Use tidal breathing protocol; respect washout intervals — especially the 7-day LAMA washout and 24–48 hour LABA window — to avoid false negatives.</li> <li>Safety: Generally safe, but can induce significant bronchoconstriction. Have a SABA available and avoid the test in patients with FEV1 &lt; 70% predicted.</li> <li>Interpretation: A negative test (PC20 > 16 mg/mL) strongly argues against current asthma. A positive test raises probability but is not specific — interpret alongside the full clinical picture.</li> </ol> <p class="has-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b7c55ae3c089f1355c66aea6599461d6"><strong>References and Further Reading</strong></p> <ol class="wp-block-list"> <li>Coates AL, Wanger J, Cockcroft DW, Culver BH; Bronchoprovocation Testing Task Force: Kai-Håkon Carlsen; Diamant Z, Gauvreau G, Hall GL, Hallstrand TS, Horvath I, de Jongh FHC, Joos G, Kaminsky DA, Laube BL, Leuppi JD, Sterk PJ.
