Exercise in Air Pollution and Lung Health in Asthmatics

28 september 2021 uppdaterad av: 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.

Beskrivning

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).

Deltagargrupp / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Resting in diesel exhaust following salbutamol inhalation
Participants will be sitting in an air pollution chamber while being exposed to diesel exhaust (PM2.5 of 300 μg/m3) for a total of 1hour following the inhalation of 400ug of salbutamol.
Study participants will sit on a chair for 60min. This is to simulate physical resting condition.
