Abstract
Cough is the most common cause of unscheduled paediatric visits. The figure in the article shows the main causes of paediatric coughs differentiated by duration, quality (dry or wet) and night-time coughing. With these few simple key anamnestic elements (and espe- cially if confirmed and reinforced by being able to see, even in a simple video, the child coughing) a diagnosis may be made with reasonable certainty, saving specialist visits and diagnostic tests that are unlikely useful and potentially harmful.
