DOI: 10.1002/ppul.23752
Abstract: American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society (ATS/ERS) spirometry interpretation guidelines recommend ≥15 min between pre‐ and post‐bronchodilator testing to evaluate for a bronchodilator response. We aimed to lengthen the time between albuterol administration and post‐bronchodilator testing to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107447
Abstract: BACKGROUND Long-acting muscarinic antagonist/long-acting β2-agonist (LAMA/LABA, also known as dual bronchodilator) and inhaled corticosteroid/LABA (ICS/LABA) are the cornerstone of maintenance treatment for stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. We aimed to comprehensively compare the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/archdischild-2022-324496
Abstract: OBJECTIVE We examined relationships between clinical features and pulmonary function before and after inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) treatment in wheezy preschool children, and specifically, whether measuring bronchodilator response (BDR) could predict benefit from ICS. DESIGN Clinical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.01131.2018
Abstract: Bronchodilation alters both respiratory system resistance (Rrs) and reactance (Xrs) in asthma, but how changes in Rrs and Xrs compare, and respond differently in health and asthma, in reflecting the contributions from the large and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2023.38.s1.5794965
Abstract: Objective: Bronchial thermoplasty is an effective intervention to improve respiratory symptoms and to reduce the rate of exacerbations in uncontrolled severe asthma. A reduction in airway smooth muscle is arguably the most widely discussed mechanisms… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0018578718769569
Abstract: Background: It is unknown whether the timing of initiation of a long-acting bronchodilator (LABD) during a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation or the method of short-acting bronchodilator (SABD) delivery may aid in improving patient… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.00636-2020
Abstract: We thank F. Guezguez and H. Ben Saad for raising important questions on recommendations for assessing a bronchodilator response (BDR) in children. The authors summarise how recommended outcome measures and cut-offs for BDR in children… read more here.

Clinical Implications of Bronchodilator Testing: Diagnosing and Differentiating COPD and Asthma-COPD Overlap
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Respiratory Care"
DOI: 10.4187/respcare.09215
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Bronchodilation testing is an important component of spirometry testing, and omitting this procedure has potential clinical implications toward diagnosing respiratory diseases. We aimed to estimate the impact of bronchodilator testing in accurately diagnosing COPD… read more here.

DOI: 10.4187/respcare.10614
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Bronchodilator delivery via a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) has generated interest in recent years. The efficacy of in-line vibrating mesh nebulizers with an HFNC during COPD exacerbation is limited. The aim of this study… read more here.
