Field‐applicable low‐intensity exercise induces bronchodilation in horses with severe asthma

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Airway dysfunction in severe equine asthma (SEA) often results in early retirement or euthanasia of affected horses. Exercise‐induced bronchodilation occurs in horses with SEA after intense treadmill exercise, but the effects of a lighter, field‐applicable, training regimen remain largely unexplored.
