    Simplified pharmacologic bronchoprovocation offers a valuable diagnostic tool for busy practices. This approach uses fewer mediator dilutions and a simple spirogram for satisfactory clinical information.

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonary Medicine
    • Clinical Diagnostics

    Background:

    • Standardized bronchial provocation is an important diagnostic methodology.
    • Current sophisticated technology may distance patients from physicians.
    • There is a need for efficient clinical techniques in busy practices.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To critique standardized bronchial provocation procedures.
    • To adapt the technique for busy office practices.
    • To increase the clinical popularity of bronchoprovocation.

    Main Methods:

    • Critique of existing standardized bronchial provocation protocols.
    • Development of an abbreviated pharmacologic bronchoprovocation method.
    • Utilizing a simple spirogram for data acquisition.
