Treatment of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2013
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) describes the transient narrowing of the airways during, and particularly after exercise and occurs commonly in asthmatic individuals. Limitation of exercise capacity is a frequent complaint in all age groups, and severity of EIB ranges from mild impairment of performance to severe bronchospasm and a large ...

Inflammatory Basis of Exercise-induced Bronchoconstriction

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Abstract Rationale: Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is a highly prevalent condition with unclear pathogenesis. Two competing theories of the pathogenesis of EIB differ regarding the inflammatory basis of this condition. Objectives: Our goals were to establish whether epithelial cell and mast cell activation with release of ...

Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction in Athletes

Chest, 2005
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) describes airway narrowing that occurs in association with exercise. EIB occurs in up to 90% of asthmatic patients and is estimated to occur in > 10% of the general population. Recent reviews have identified asthma as a risk factor for sudden death and have reported many deaths that have been attributed ...

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction: Pathogenesis

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2005
There is still active debate on the acute mechanism of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). Although it is unlikely that vasoconstriction and hyperemia of the bronchial vasculature are essential events for EIB, it is likely that this vasculature enhances the airway response to dehydration and contributes to the pathogenesis of EIB, particularly ...

Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Drugs, 2002
Exercise-induced asthma, or more appropriately, exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), occurs in 80 to 90% of individuals with asthma and in approximately 11% of the general population without asthma. EIB is characterised by post-exercise airways obstruction resulting in reductions in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV(1)) of greater than ...

Pathogenesis of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2013
This article presents the various potential mechanisms responsible for the development of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). Although the etiology of EIB is multifactorial, and the physiologic processes involved may vary between individuals (especially between those with and without asthma), drying of the small airways with an associated ...

The Inflammatory Basis of Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Physician and Sportsmedicine, 2010
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is common in individuals with asthma, and may be observed even in the absence of a clinical diagnosis of asthma. Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction can be diagnosed via standardized exercise protocols, and anti-inflammatory therapy with inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) is often warranted.

Exercise induced bronchoconstriction and sports

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2008
Abstract Exercise induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) describes the acute transient airway narrowing that occurs during and most often after exercise, and is prevalent in elite athletes. Prolonged hyperventilation of dry or cold air and increased inhalation of pollutants or allergens could account for the bronchoconstrictive reaction.

Atropine and Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction

Chest, 1981
Six asthmatic children were studied to determine whether supplemental, parenteral atropine would increase the effects of bronchodilation and protection against exercise-induced bronchoconstriction after maximal effects had been achieved by inhalation.

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction update—2016

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2016
The first practice parameter on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) was published in 2010. This updated practice parameter was prepared 5 years later. In the ensuing years, there has been increased understanding of the pathogenesis of EIB and improved diagnosis of this disorder by using objective testing.
