Abstract
To evaluate the sensitivity of peak expiratory flow (PEF), obtained by portable peak flow meter, in detecting mild changes in airway caliber as assessed by forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1), we studied 184 subjects who underwent different bronchial challenge tests for suspected bronchial asthma. We measured FEV1 and PEF during bronchoconstriction induced by different stimuli: allergen, methacholine, toluene diisocyanate vapors, exercise,...
