title: [On the late post-provocation spasm of the bronchi].
abstract: To assess the incidence of the late reaction of the bronchi in patients with atopic asthma the following methods of the provocation with atopic asthma the following methods of the provocation were applied: a) exercise test, b) a 3-minute ventilation with cold air and c) inhalation of the distilled water Disturbances of ventilation were assessed spirographically. An emphasis was also on the activity of NCF in the blood serum following the applied provocation tests. It was found that the late bronchospasm followed the exercise test in about half of the examined patients (48%). It was less frequent after hyperventilation with cold air (33%) and inhalation of the distilled water (38%). Bronchospasm was accompanied by the increase in NCF activity in the blood serum. The late bronchospasm after provocation tests in asthmatics is a real fact, not depending on the accidental ventilation disorders.
