pubmed-article:12431189pubmed:abstractTextThe diagnosis of a functional respiratory disorder is sometimes difficult and time-consuming, because the symptoms often resemble those of organic diseases. The most common entities are hyperventilation syndrome, psychogenic cough, sighing dyspnea, and vocal cord dysfunction. Typical signs are heavy breathing or dyspnea, cough or sneezing, various breathing sounds, tightness of the throat or chest, pain, and fear. Criteria for differentiation include the lack of nocturnal symptoms, the sudden occurrence, no typical trigger factors, the variable duration, a quick regression, and that symptoms do not respond to adequate pharmacotherapy and finally normal results of diagnostic work-up. Therapeutic options comprise psychological intervention (by reassurance, relaxation techniques, and behaviour therapy) and physiotherapy (e.g. breathing therapy, voice training). Intensive efforts should be made to diagnose functional symptoms at an early stage because this will prevent stigmatization and fixation of symptoms and disease, and also prevent children from undergoing unnecessary and potentially harmful therapies.lld:pubmed
