OBJECTIVE
To determine the effectiveness of a new reflex cough test, using nebulized tartaric acid, in the evaluation of the laryngeal cough reflex and the development of aspiration pneumonia.
METHODS
In this two-phase study, the cough test assessed the cough reflex in 161 stroke subjects. Phase 1
Aspirin (ASP) and dipyridamole (DIP) in combination is widely used in the prevention of secondary events after stroke and transient ischemic attack. Salicylic acid is a well-known impurity of ASP, and the DIP extended-release formulation may contain ester impurities originating from the reaction
Aspirin (ASP) and dipyridamole (DIP) are widely used as a combination in pharmaceutical formulations for treatment of strokes. Many of these formulations are containing tartaric acid as an excipient (in DIP pellets formulation for sustained release), which increases the probability of formation of
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of acute unilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarctions in right-handed subjects on their ability to elicit voluntary cough (VC), and separately to assess the laryngeal cough reflex using the reflex cough test.
METHODS
