This groundbreaking reference presents the latest
advances in the study of exercise as a precipitant of
acute airflow limitation-comprehensively updating the theories, testing methodologies, clinical features, and treatment options for
exercise-induced asthma (EIA). Written by leading researchers in pulmonary disease and critical care medicine, Exercise-Induced Asthma · discusses current theories on pathogenesis, emphasizing new data on the relationship between vascular phenomena and bronchoconstriction · explores respiratory thermal transfer and water vaporization as factors in controlling or triggering the asthma reaction sequence · evaluates the efficacy and potential interactions of
