About the Book

A practical guide for professionals in the medical and health communities who work on a daily basis with individuals suffering from exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) and asthma (EIA). This book is a valuable source of information for coaches and athletes who are attempting to optimise performance while simultaneously coping with asthma and/or EIB. It also provides the most current, scientifically-based information on the topic of asthma and exercise.

Table of Contents:
Exercise pulmonary physiology in health; incidence of asthma and exercise-induced asthma; pathophysiology of asthma and exercise-induced asthma; animal models, athletes and the development of exercise-induced asthma; role of allergies in the provocation of exercise-induced asthma; asthma - before, during and after exercise; diagnosis of exercised-induced asthma in the athlete; asthma treatment and guidelines; asthma medications as ergogenic aids.
