The study will also seek to determine if this measurement can predict the best treatment for the cough.\n\nSubjects with a chronic cough which is suspected to be related to acid reflux for which their doctor has prescribed a proton pump inhibitor medication will be enrolled in this study.', 'detailedDescription': 'Acid reflux has been considered to be a key contributor to cough, particularly in patients with obstructive lung diseases. However, diagnosis has relied upon either responsiveness to high dose twice daily administration of proton pump inhibitor therapy or by 24 hour esophageal pH probes. This study is designed to provide information for the development of a clinically useful diagnostic (exhaled breath condensate pH) to identify the contribution of acid reflux to cough.\n\nExhaled breath condensate (EBC) pH has been well documented to reflect airway acidification. Acid reflux to the level of the hypopharynx, which is a key common trigger of acid reflux induced cough, acidifies the airway sufficiently to be identified with EBC pH assays. The association of low EBC pH with an immediately preceding cough strongly suggests an association of the cough with an airway acid event, and even if the acidity is not prolonged, acid reflux becomes highly suspect.\n\nThis study will examine the ability of EBC pH measurements to prognose the likelihood of a positive response to acid blockade with proton pump inhibitor therapy in subjects with chronic cough.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '5 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'patients with chronic cough for whom their doctor is planning to begin an empiric trial of proton pump inhibitor as a diagnostic trial of therapy.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Outpatient\n* 5 years of age and older\n* Cough lasting a minimum of 3 weeks\n* Has been prescribed a proton pump inhibitor as a single therapeutic and diagnostic effort to control the cough\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Inability to perform serial exhaled breath condensate collections at home\n* Unwillingness to initiate proton pump inhibitor therapy as prescribed by physician\n* Other changes planned in therapy, such as initiating or discontinuing cough suppressant therapy, initiating or augmenting antibiotic therapy, initiating or augmenting anti-inflammatory therapy\n* Previous treatment of respiratory symptoms with proton pump inhibitor therapy\n* Current treatment with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor medication or H2 antagonists\n* Regular exposure to an environmental irritant'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00330603', 'briefTitle': 'Serial Exhaled Breath pH Monitoring', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Virginia'}, 'officialTitle': 'Serial Exhaled Breath pH Monitoring', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '12302'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'Serial exhaled breath collections', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'collect breath for 5 minutes on 8 occasions'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '22908', 'city': 'Charlottesville', 'state': 'Virginia', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'United States', 'contacts': [{'name': 'John Hunt, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'jfh2m@virginia.edu', 'phone': '434-243-9916'}, {'name': 'John Hunt, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR'}], 'facility': 'University of Virginia', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 38.02931, 'lon': -78.47668}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'John Hunt, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'jfh2m@virginia.edu', 'phone': '434-243-9324'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'John Hunt, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'University of Virginia'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'University of Virginia', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'oldNameTitle': 'John Hunt, MD', 'oldOrganization': 'University of Virginia, Pediatrics'}}}}
