Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction can be difficult to diagnose clinically given the lack of specific symptoms [2] and frequent misinterpretation as manifestations of vigorous exercise. There are many mimics that present with similar symptoms, such as vocal cord dysfunction, cardiac arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, and gastroesophageal reflux ...
More generally termed exercise-induced asthma, the preferred and more accurate term exercise-induced bronchoconstriction better reflects underlying pathophysiology. It is also preferred due to the former term giving the false impression that asthma is caused by exercise.
Exercise-induced collapse (EIC) is a genetic disorder, mainly found in Labrador Retrievers, [1] Chesapeake Bay Retrievers , Curly Coated Retrievers, and Boykin Spaniels. . The genetic mutation has also been seen in a few cases in Cocker spaniels, German wire-haired pointers, Old English Sheepdogs, Bouvier des Flandres, Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Clumber Spani
Exercise can trigger bronchoconstriction both in people with or without asthma. [116] It occurs in most people with asthma and up to 20% of people without asthma. [116] Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction is common in professional athletes. The highest rates are among cyclists (up to 45%), swimmers, and cross-country skiers. [117]
Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) is a transient, reversible narrowing of the larynx that occurs during high intensity exercise. This acts to impair airflow and cause shortness of breath , stridor and often discomfort in the throat and upper chest.
6. Worms and other parasitic infections. With heavy worm burdens or certain parasitic infections, dogs can vomit. You may see worms in the vomit, but an absence of worms doesn’t mean parasites ...
Bronchial hyperresponsiveness (or other combinations with airway or hyperreactivity, BH used as a general abbreviation) [1] is a state characterised by easily triggered bronchospasm (contraction of the bronchioles or small airways).
Exercise-induced anaphylaxis affects about 1 in 2000 young people. [24] Rates appear to be increasing: the numbers in the 1980s were approximately 20 per 100,000 per year, while in the 1990s it was 50 per 100,000 per year. [16] The increase appears to be primarily for food-induced anaphylaxis. [56] The risk is greatest in young people and ...
