Abstract:
We have compared bronchial challenge with both histamine and methacholine for the tidal breathing method and dosimeter method, using the DeVilbiss 646 nebulizer, in 18 patients with asthma. There was a significant difference between the PC20 FEV1 but not the PD20 FEV1 when either agonist was administered by the different techniques but not by the same method.
