- W2570708695 abstract "Exercise is not only a very common precipitant of acute asthmatic episodes but also a potent non-pharmacological test for diagnosis of asthma. Different exercise protocols have been used; however a simple exercise test would be valuable and helpful for detecting exerciseinduced asthma (EIA). The main goal of this study was to compare the exercise-inducing capacity of free running, step test, and cycle ergometer. Forty-eight asthma patients performed and completed the exercise tests reaching at least 80–85% of the predicted maximal heat rate. The peak expiratory flow (PEF) values and heart rate (HR) were used to monitor pulmonary function post-exercise and the intensity of the exercise respectively. The PEF values were measured at baseline, immediately after the exercise then at 5-minute intervals up to 30 minutes. Subjects who reached the percentage fall in PEF >15% were considered positive for EIA. Free running was found to be the most asthmagenic exercise followed by the step test and cycle ergometer: 36 subjects (75%) for free running versus 27 subjects (56%) for step test, versus 24 subjects (50%) for cycle ergometer. There is a strong and significant correlation between the percentage fall in PEF of cycle ergometer and step test (r=0.61, p<0.001). Free running produced the most positive result. However, the step test is a safe, simple, portable, and readily available instrument which compares well with laboratory-based cycle ergometer. We conclude that the step-test is an inexpensive and responsive exercise protocol for assessing and evaluating asthmatics in low-income countries." @default.
