Bronchial Provocation Tests [PDF]
Certain patients, especially those with asthma, exhibit an increased bronchoconstrictor response to a variety of stimuli. Bronchial provocation tests have developed as a method of assessing this bronchial hyperreactivity. They involve the measurement of lung function tests relating to airway calibre before and after brief exposure to a constrictor ...
