Description: There are a range of conditions associated with reflux, aspiration and lung disease that are managed by speech-language pathologists (SLP). In many cases the SLP role is to treat the symptoms or consequences of the disease while management of the underlying disease is the role of the medical practitioner. Laryngeal conditions related to reflux, aspiration and lung disease can result in hypo or hyperlaryngeal function. They include oropharyngeal dysphagia, and laryngeal hyperresponsiveness syndromes such as chronic refractory cough, paradoxical vocal fold movement, muscle tension dysphonia and globus pharyngeus. This chapter outlines the speech pathology assessment and treatment of these conditions.
