Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test cough function in individuals with Parkinson's disease and healthy older adults. Cough is a complex, defensive function which involves movement of the chest and lungs. The investigators want to compare the movement of the chest wall and the lungs during voluntary and reflex cough.

The long-term goal of this research is to develop treatments for people with cough dysfunction. Cough dysfunction increases the risk for respiratory infections such as pneumonia. The results from this study will provide information to help researchers understand the difference between reflex and voluntary cough more fully.


Clinical Trial Description

If the participant agrees to participate, the investigators will first test pulmonary (lung) function. Next, the investigators will test voluntary and reflex cough. After this first round of cough testing, the investigators will ask participants to cough long and hard during voluntary and reflex cough testing. Finally, the investigators will view the larynx (voice box) with an endoscopic camera inserted through the nose. This test is done to see if there are any changes in the larynx that may influence cough. ;
