Chronic Cough, the 20th volume in the Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine series, delves into a comprehensive analysis of managing chronic cough in Chinese medicine. This comprehensive approach encompasses various aspects, including cough variant asthma, upper airways cough syndrome, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Extensive evidence from classical Chinese medicine literature, contemporary clinical research, clinical trials, and experimental studies is reviewed, analyzed, and synthesized. The data from these diverse sources is consolidated to provide evidence-based summaries and insights that can inform clinical practice and future research in Chinese medicine.

The book aims to equip clinicians and students in the fields of integrative medicine and Chinese medicine with up-to-date knowledge and evidence-based guidance for the management of chronic cough. It addresses the need for practitioners to consult a wide range of resources to expand their expertise in this area. Traditionally, specialty books and journal articles from biomedical databases published in Chinese and English have been relied upon.

To address this gap, Chronic Cough offers a convenient and accessible reference that consolidates all the necessary information in one place. Practitioners can rely on this book to gain a deep understanding of contemporary practices and the current evidence base for various Chinese medicine therapies, including herbal formulas and acupuncture treatments. By providing this comprehensive resource, practitioners can focus on delivering high-quality healthcare, knowing that their decisions are grounded in the best available evidence.

In conclusion, Chronic Cough serves as a valuable tool for clinicians and students seeking to enhance their knowledge and expertise in managing chronic cough in Chinese medicine. By presenting a multi-faceted analysis of the evidence, the book enables practitioners to make informed decisions and provide optimal care to their patients. Its accessibility and comprehensive nature make it an essential resource for practitioners in the field, contributing to the advancement of evidence-based Chinese medicine and improving patient outcomes.
