Exercise-induced bronchospasm is a common complication of asthma. Aggressive treatment of this conditions permits patients to maintain full activity despite their illness. Since most asthmatic patients are healthy except for an intermittent respiratory problem, providing them the opportunity to exercise in all weather conditions affords a clear improvement in their quality of life. Conceptualizing exercise-induced bronchospasm as a hyperreactive airway response to rapid inhalation of cool, dry air leads logically to the primary methods used to treat this disorder.
运动诱发性支气管痉挛是哮喘的常见并发症。积极治疗这种病症可使患者尽管患病仍能保持充分活动。由于大多数哮喘患者除了间歇性呼吸问题外身体健康，为他们提供在各种天气条件下锻炼的机会能明显改善其生活质量。将运动诱发性支气管痉挛概念化为气道对快速吸入凉爽、干燥空气的高反应性反应，从逻辑上引出了用于治疗这种病症的主要方法。
