A Scoping Review to Map Health Outcomes in Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction
What is already known on this subject Inducible laryngeal obstruction is an upper airway disorder that causes physical, social and psychological impact on individuals. Outcome measures are used to assess progress or impact of an intervention. What this paper adds to the existing knowledge Varied outcome measures were identified across studies, but there are many gaps in coverage, particularly in disease-specific personal and environmental impact. What are the potential or actual clinical implications of this study? This study identifies that there is heterogeneity in the current outcome measures used, and standardised measures are required that are disease-specific and cover all domains of the World Health Organisation International Classification of Function, Disability and Health framework.
