			*Also known as "vocal cord dysfunction"
			*Occurs from abnormal adduction of the vocal cords during inspiration

===Diagnosis===

==Management==
*Reassurance and breathing techniques to resolve stridor:
**Jaw thrust while breathing
**Pursed lip breathing through straw or endotracheal tube
**Inhale through nose for 3 seconds and exhale through pursed lips for 3 seconds
**"Pant like a dog" - rhythmic breathing with mouth open and tongue protruding forward
**3 sniffs - take 2 quick then 1 slow inhalational sniffs through the nose, exhale slowly through mouth
*Mild sedatives (eg [[benzodiazepines]]) may be effective in cases refractory to breathing techniques<ref>Goldman J, Muers M. Vocal cord dysfunction and wheezing. Thorax. 1991;46(6):401-404. doi:10.1136/thx.46.6.401</ref>
