Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: - Ultrasonic nebulization within 48 hours before testing. - FEV1 <70% of predicted. - Respiratory infection within 6 weeks prior to examination for which medication should be prescribed.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Analyze the effect of nebulized salbutamol or isotonic saline on exercise induced airway obstruction measured with a fall in FEV1 in elite speed skaters;Secondary Objective: - Analyze the effect of nebulized salbutamol or isotonic saline on exercise induced airway obstruction measured with a change in airway resistance in elite speed skaters - Analyze the effect of nebulized salbutamol or isotonic saline on exercise induced airway obstruction measured with a change in airway reactance in elite speed skaters - Analyze the effect of nebulized salbutamol or isotonic saline on exercise induced airway obstruction measured with a change in EMG activity or breathing musclesin elite speed skaters;Primary end point(s): -The difference in exercise induced fall of FEV1 after four minutes of treatment with salbutamol compared to nebulization with with salbutamol, 0.9% NaCl and controls.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 10, 15 and 30 minutes after exercise | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): -Analyze the change in exercise induced increase of airway resistance, measured with the FOT, after four minutes of treatment with salbutamol, 0.9% NaCl and controls. -Analyze the change in exercise induced decrease of airway reactance, measured with the FOT, after four minutes of treatment with salbutamol, 0.9% NaCl and controls. -Analyzing the change in the electro physiological activity of the respiratory muscle system, measured with EMG with Salbutamol ,isotonic saline and controls. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 10, 15 and 30 minutes after exercise | — |
