Both muscular and respiratory biofeedback procedures have been employed in attempts to reduce symptoms of bronchial asthma. Research relating to these approaches is reviewed in the present article. Biofeedback training both for facial muscle relaxation and for respiratory resistance decrease improves short-term pulmonary function in asthmatic individuals. These forms of training represent promising avenues for the management of asthma. However, unqualified endorsement of these procedures is premature, at the present time, since their influence on asthma-related variables other than pulmonary function has not been determined and since their long-term effects have not been investigated.
肌肉和呼吸生物反馈疗法都已被用于尝试减轻支气管哮喘的症状。本文回顾了与这些方法相关的研究。针对面部肌肉放松和呼吸阻力降低的生物反馈训练可改善哮喘患者的短期肺功能。这些训练形式是治疗哮喘的有前景的途径。然而，目前对这些疗法的无条件认可还为时过早，因为它们对除肺功能之外的哮喘相关变量的影响尚未确定，且其长期效果也未得到研究。
