Exercise in Air Pollution and Lung Health in Asthmatics

28 de setembro de 2021 atualizado por: Michael Koehle, University of British Columbia

The Effects of Inhaled Beta-2-Agonists and Air Pollution on Lung Function and Athletic Capacity

When exposed to air pollution, the asthma symptoms are aggravated and lung function is impaired. Due to high breathing rates and volumes, physically active individuals are at particular risk of lung health impairment due to the high breathing rates and volumes. Greater doses of air pollutants reach deeper areas in the lungs where they can trigger asthma-symptoms. When treating these symptoms with inhaled beta-2-agonists the airways widen even more, allowing the air pollutants to reach even deeper areas of the lung. With this study the investigators investigate how inhaled beta-2-agonists affect athletic capacity and lung health in physically active asthmatics.

Descrição

Inclusion Criteria:

  • mild-moderate asthmatics with controlled treatment (definition of "mild": percent fall index at eucapnic voluntary hyperpnea (EVH) test on screening day between 10-15%; "moderate": percent fall index at EVH test on screening day between 15 - 20%).
  • men and non-pregnant women

Exclusion Criteria:

  • any history of uncontrolled respiratory or cardiac disease
  • pregnancy
  • allergic reactions to lidocaine and salbutamol
  • any recent infections or orthopaedic nasal issues/injuries that may interfere with the insertion of the catheter needed to assess expiratory flow limitation or work of breathing
  • claustrophobia in small rooms, comparable to the air pollution chamber used for this study.
  • English as a second language (ESL) - participants who are not able to understand the risk that may be associated with the participation in this study due to language difficulties after following the University of British Clinical Research Ethics Board Guidance Notes 13.2.1. (ESL participants will be given a consent form in the most appropriate language or an appropriate translator will be present during the initial consent process).
