This article describes the assessment and behavioral treatment for paradoxical vocal fold motion disorder (PVFM), chronic cough, and laryngospasm. Behavioral treatment for these disorders is coordinated by the speech-language pathologist. Assessment of PVFM involves a detailed behavioral analysis of the triggers for the conditions and incorporation of the medical findings as they relate to the symptoms. Treatments developed originally by the group at the National Jewish Hospital in Denver, Colorado, and then expanded by others have been shown to reduce or eliminate the symptoms and improve overall quality of life in patients who have these diagnoses.
