Investigation of Novel Procedure for Methacholine Challenge Testing

NCT02965482 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 15

Last updated 2017-06-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study will compare a novel volumetric method (performed with the Aerogen Solo vibrating mesh nebulizer) with the standard two-minute tidal breathing protocol (performed with the Wright jet nebulizer) for methacholine challenge testing. The results will then give an indication as to whether the novel technique accurately assesses a given dose of methacholine with the new Aerogen Solo device. In addition, the reproducibility of test results with each method will be examined. Altogether, the findings from this investigation may provide means for better standardization of current testing guidelines.
