Entry terms

  • Exercise Induced Asthma
  • Exercise-Induced Asthma

Scope note

  • Asthma attacks following a period of exercise. Usually the induced attack is short-lived and regresses spontaneously. The magnitude of postexertional airway obstruction is strongly influenced by the environment in which exercise is performed (i.e. inhalation of cold air during physical exertion markedly augments the severity of the airway obstruction; conversely, warm humid air blunts or abolishes it).

History note

  • 91(79); was see under ASTHMA 1979-90
