  • Title: [Post exertion bronchospasm--usefulness of different methods for evaluating bronchial constriction after exertional provocation].
    Author: Gaszczyk G.
    Journal: Pneumonol Alergol Pol; 1997; 65 Suppl 1():18-26. PubMed ID: 9410297.
    Abstract:
    55 children with bronchial asthma were tested using three exercise provocation tests: a treadmill, stairways running and cycloergometer. The results were evaluated on the base of the lung function tests, auscultation and airways resistance measurement with occlusion method. Of these three tests the treadmill test seemed to be the most useful to prove bronchial hyperreactivity towards exercise. Stairways running occurred to be very congenial. The study also proved usefulness of auscultation in evaluating of bronchial constriction after exercise.
