Not all cough is COVID

Chronic cough is one of the most common reasons why patients see their primary care doctor, and the leading reason for referrals to respiratory clinics. 

In this talk, Dr Man focuses on the differential diagnosis and management of chronic cough in adults to help differentiate it from symptoms of COVID-19 infection.

• Identify the leading causes of chronic cough in adults.
• Learn how to investigate and diagnose patients in the primary care setting using tools available in your practice. 
• Understand when to refer patients with chronic cough to a respiratory physician.
• Awareness of current and emerging management options.

Dr William Man is a consultant chest physician at Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals and specialises in respiratory conditions including asthma, chronic cough, COPD, COVID-19 and sleep medicine. 

In addition to his role at our hospitals, he is also a Reader in Respiratory Medicine at the National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London.
