The Clinical Utility of Eucapnic Voluntary Hyperventilation Testing for the Diagnosis of Exercise-Induced Bronchospasm
Journal of Asthma, 09/10/09
Brummel NE et al. – The authors present the first description of the clinical use of EVH testing for the diagnosis of EIB in a large pulmonary practice. EVH was diagnostic in a large majority of patients. EVH is an excellent and feasible modality to diagnose EIB in patients seen in a general pulmonary practice. this data highlight the need for further studies regarding the appropriate minimum threshold minute ventilation for an EVH test and to explain potential mechanisms for seemingly different stimulus thresholds for bronchospasm in males versus females.
