Exercise-induced asthma

The American Journal of Medicine, 1980
Exercise-induced asthma can appear as one of many forms of airway hyperreactivity or as a unique clinical entity. Simple spirometry confirms the suspected clinical diagnosis in most instances, although more sensitive measurements of airway obstruction may be required.

Exercise-induced asthma

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1975
A review of exercise-induced asthma is presented which describes work that has been carried out by the authors and by other investigators over recent years. The effect of exericse on lung function in asthmatic and normal subjects is compared. The influence of the type and severity of exercise on the response of the asthmatic is noted and the importance

Exercise-Induced Asthma

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
Exercise-induced asthma (EIA) is characterised by transient airway obstruction occurring after strenuous exertion. A fall of 10% or more in the FEV1 after exercise is diagnostic. Inhalation of large volumes of dry, cold air during exercise leads to loss of heat and water from the bronchial mucosa and airway cooling and drying.

Exercise-induced asthma

Nursing Clinics of North America, 2003
EIB is a common manifestation in diagnosed asthmatics and is a sensitive warning sign of worsening asthma. EIB may occur as an isolated entity in the absence of signs and symptoms of chronic asthma. Careful diagnosis is crucial in determining if this condition represents a preasthmatic state or simply a transient condition resulting from individual ...

Exercise-Induced Asthma

New England Journal of Medicine, 1994
Exercise-induced asthma is a condition in which vigorous physical activity triggers acute airway narrowing in people with heightened airway reactivity. A more accurate description would be exercise-induced bronchospasm. Long usage, however, has left the former term firmly fixed in the lexicon.

Exercise-induced asthma

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2009
Exercise has been recognized as a trigger of bronchospasm for centuries. However, there remains much debate regarding the mechanism of this response, nomenclature to describe it, optimal tests for diagnosis, and treatment options. There is a need to review recent findings in this area both for clinicians and to highlight areas in need of additional ...

EXERCISE-INDUCED ASTHMA

The Lancet, 1968
Abstract A patient with severe exercise-induced asthma is described. Exercise produced a fall of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (F.E.V. 1 ) to 0·3 litres and of P a O 2 to 57 mm. Hg. The fall in F.E.V. 1 was reproduced by voluntary hyperventilation and by repeated forced expirations. In all circumstances tested, the fall of F.E.V.

Exercise-Induced Asthma

Chest, 1985
Exercise-induced bronchospasm is a common condition of patients who have asthma. Its mechanism appears to be related to cooling of the airways. Clinically, it can be managed by pretreatment with beta-adrenergic medications or cromolyn. Measures to protect the airway from excessive loss of heat, such as the use of scarves or participating in indoor ...

Exercise-Induced Asthma

Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 1987
Though exercise-induced asthma (EIA) has been recognized for centuries, its characteristics, standardized testing, and pharmacologic management have been clarified only in the last two decades. Controversy continues concerning etiology; whether or not cold air, hypertonic and hypotonic bronchial challenges involve the same mechanism(s); and the ...

Exercise-induced asthma

Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2002
Exercise-induced asthma (EIA) is common in asthmatic children and adolescents. Since it may cause limitations to daily life activities in up to 30%, mastering EIA is important in asthma management. EIA consists of bronchial obstruction occurring immediately, or soon after, physical exercise as a result of increased respiratory water and heat loss due ...
