No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of investigator´s clinical trial is to investigate 52 patients aged three to five years with viral-induced asthma and 52 patients aged three to five years with allergic asthma. Over a time-span of 5 years the investigators will explore lung function and bronchial responsiveness. The investigators plan to evaluate long-term clinical history of moderate to severe bronchial hyperresponsiveness in preschool children with asthma. Therefore factors like atopy in children, parental atopy and bronchial hyperresponsiveness will be explored.

Conditions

  • Intrinsic Asthma
  • Allergic Asthma
  • Allergy
  • Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness

Interventions

OTHER

methacholine challenge test

2 ml of liquid-dissolved methacholine in concentration of 16 mg/ml dosed in 5 steps of 0.01 mg, 0.1 mg, 0.4 mg, 0.8 mg, and 1.6 mg. 2 minutes after each step up an impulse oscillometry (IOS) and spirometry will be performed. the challenge will be stopped in case of a ≥ 20% decrease from baseline in FEV1 (PD20) and 0,2 mg Salbutamol will be given.
