  • Cough Effectiveness and Pulmonary Hygiene Practices in Patients with Pompe Disease
    Lung, 2019
    Co-Authors: Teresa Pitts, Rachel Bordelon, Alyssa Huff, Barry J Byrne, Barbara K Smith
    Abstract:

    Purpose While factors leading to hypoventilation have been well studied in Pompe disease, cough effectiveness and airway clearance practices are less understood. We aimed to identify significant factors that influence peak cough flow (PCF) in Pompe, and to detect whether Pulmonary Hygiene practices were reflective of reduced PCF. Methods This is a prospective observational study of 20 subjects with Pompe disease (infantile-onset: 7, juvenile-onset: 6, adult-onset: 14). Subjects performed spirometry, maximal respiratory pressures, and cough (voluntary: n  = 24, spontaneous: n  = 3). Subjects or their parents reported airway clearance and secretion management practices. Relationships between disease variables, Pulmonary function, and cough parameters as well as group differences in cough parameters were evaluated. Results Subjects with infantile-onset disease had significantly lower PCF ( p
