This study aims to determine whether a validated evidence-based cough algorithm initiated at the development of chronic cough, defined as >4 weeks duration, following an acute respiratory illness (ARI) improves clinical outcomes in urban, rural and remote Indigenous children compared to standard care. The study will also examine the predictors of chronic cough and cough outcomes in these children as well as the cost-effectivess of the intervention.

本研究旨在确定在急性呼吸道疾病（ARI）后慢性咳嗽（定义为4周持续时间）发生时启动的经验证循证咳嗽算法是否与标准治疗相比改善了城市，农村和偏远土著儿童的临床结局。该研究还将检查这些儿童慢性咳嗽和咳嗽结果的预测因素以及干预的成本效益。
