Our previous studies have demonstrated that tussiphonogram is suitable not only for the detection of pathological condition in the respiratory tract but also for treatment effectiveness assessment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the possibilities of tussiphonography in detection of already little pathological changes in the airways and lungs. Therefore the changes of voluntary cough sound indexes were compared with pulmonary function tests in selected group of asthmatics before and after a pulsatile electromagnetic therapy in which the effect of therapy on pulmonary function tests was minimal.

The physiology of cough was studied using 2008 voluntary coughs. The tussiexpirograms verify that in a cough-series there are "double-flow" phases. The tussitachogram enables a more precise observation, for example, one can recognise five flow phases within one single cough.

By tussiphonography the voluntarily induced cough sound was registered in the course of asthmatic attacks and in the state of quinescence. Evaluation of the recordings revealed that in the course of the asthmatic attack, the intensity of voluntarily induced cough sound was significantly decreased.

Tussiphonographic examinations were conducted in 21 probands admitted to hospital with chronic bronchitis, diagnosed by spirometry. Voluntary cough registered in subjects with obstructive chronic bronchitis appeared in the recordings as a marked multifarious sound, an increased mono-sound or a connected double-sound. The average value of cough sound intensity was increased to 244%, and the duration of cough was delayed to 77% when compared to normal values.
