FEV1
297
values for bronchodilator response
FEV1 FVC FEF 25-75% if 2 of 3 parameters improve, then the patient has reversible airway obstruction
298
Occurs most frequently in active adolescents and young adults may mimic EIA symptoms do not respond to common asthma meds
Vocal cord dysfunction
299
Paradoxical closure and adduction of the vocal cords during inspiration This causes partial to severe airflow obstruction with sensations of throat tightness, suffocation, and/or choking
