No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Sputum induction is considered a relatively non-invasive, reliable procedure, which can be utilised to characterise the inflammatory profile of the airways.

However, the procedure can be slightly uncomfortable for patients. This study aims to assess the differences in participants' tolerability of sputum induction, by comparing two different nebulisers when performing the procedure.

Conditions
