Corrigendum for Trimble & Patterson (2020), ‘Cough reflex testing in acute stroke: A survey of current UK service provision and speech and language therapist perceptions’

In Trimble and Patterson (2020) incorrect units of measurement were used when referring to citric acid solution. The correct units of measurement should be mol/L instead of mmol/L.

In the ‘Cough reflex testing (CRT): a potential aid to identifying silent aspirators on CSE?’ section (page 902), the text should read:

Lee et al. (2014) used the mouthpiece method with 0.05 mol/L citric acid solution… whereas Miles et al. (2013b) favoured the face mask method with 0.6 mmol/L

In the ‘Citric acid solution concentration’ section (page 905), the text should read:

The majority of respondents reported that their service used 0.6 mol/L citric acid solution diluted in 0.9% sodium chloride (n = 7 of eight respondents). Only one reported that they used an alternative concentration (3 mol/L).

In Discussion (page 908), the text should read:

Sensitivity and specificity were optimized for FEES at 0.4 mol/L and VFSS at 0.6 mol/L. Sensitivity was improved… sensitivities and specificities were still unremarkable… for FEES with use of 0.6 mol/l citric acid solution

The majority of respondents reported the current or previous use of 0.6 mol/L

In Appendix A (page 914), it should read:

(10) What concentration(s) of citric acid solution were used by your service (mol/L)?

These corrections do not affect the article's results and conclusions in any way.
