This course provides a systematic approach to evaluating and managing persistent cough lasting over four weeks in the pediatric population. Clinicians will learn to differentiate between benign post-viral syndromes and specific, underlying etiologies such as protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB), asthma, upper airway cough syndrome, and foreign body aspiration. The curriculum emphasizes identifying critical “red flag” symptoms, utilizing targeted diagnostic pathways, and avoiding unnecessary empiric therapies to ensure safe, evidence-based management for young patients.
