Bronchial provocation tests with pharmacological agents
Clinical Reviews in Allergy, 1990Inhalation challenge of pharmacologic agents to categorize the degree of bronchial hyperresponsiveness is a. powerful tool when appropriate standardization and data interpretation are duly considered. Investigations of both methodology and clinical utility have extended our understanding of many diseases that share bronchial hyperresponsiveness as a ...

Mediators in Bronchial Provocation Tests
1993Three major pathogenetic components characterize bronchial asthma: (1) atopy, i.e., increased levels of IgE and increased degranulation of mast cells and basophils triggered by IgE-mediated or non-IgE-mediated stimuli; (2) allergic inflammation, which damages to varying extents the bronchial wall components (epithelium, vessels, submucosal glands ...

Inhaled Mannitol as a Laryngeal and Bronchial Provocation Test
Journal of Voice, 2017Timely diagnosis of vocal cord dysfunction (VCD), more recently termed "inducible laryngeal obstruction," is important because VCD is often misdiagnosed as asthma, resulting in delayed diagnosis and inappropriate treatment. Visualization of paradoxical vocal cord movement on laryngoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis, but is limited by poor test ...

A New Aerosol Device for Bronchial Provocation Tests
Respiration, 2009A special new device for diagnostic (bronchoprovocation) and therapeutic aerosol application is described. It consists of a high quality nebulizer system combined with a 10-liter storage bag which serves as an aerosol ‘conditioner’ (saturated ambient temperature and pressure conditions) and as a holding chamber to increase the respirable aerosol ...

In VivoDiagnostic Procedures: Skin Testing, Nasal Provocation, and Bronchial Provocation
Methods, 1997In vivo challenge procedures can be very useful in the analysis of allergic symptoms. Skin testing has a high degree of sensitivity and specificity for determining antigens that cause allergic disease. However, positive skin tests do not necessarily indicate that a specific allergen causes symptoms specific for a certain organ.

[Bronchial provocation test in bronchial asthma].
Rinsho byori. The Japanese journal of clinical pathology, 1993Methacholine provocation test, bronchial reversibility test, aspirin inhalation test, and cough provocation test have been performed at our institute to examine pathophysiology and to diagnose bronchial diseases. Bronchial responsiveness to methacholine correlated to baseline pulmonary functions, especially to % predicted value of forced expiratory ...

1987
More and more investigators are performing bronchial inhalation challenge procedures to provide answers regarding experimental and clinical considerations in normals and in asthmatic subjects. Inhalation challenges have been compared to other provocative challenges such as exercise or the inhalation of cold air.

Bronchial provocation test and military aptitude
Clinical Problems, 2018Background: Evaluation of fitness for military duty is sometimes complex. Respiratory diseases such as asthma may affect individuals9 fitness for military service. In order to assess fitness for military service in subjects with asthma symptoms, objective and reliable tests are needed.

Occupational Agents in Bronchial Provocation Tests
1993In 1700 Bernardino Ramazzini, Professor of Medicine at the University of Padova, Italy, firstly described grain dust asthma and baker’s asthma [1]. Some 200 years later, in 1911, Karasek and Karasek [2] described asthma caused by exposure to platinum salts in photographic workers.
