The recommendations in this Guideline reflect the currently available evidence. New clinical research data will necessitate a revision and update in the future.

Although questionnaires provide reasonable estimates of EIA prevalence among elite cold-weather athletes, the use of self-reported symptoms for EIA diagnosis in this population will likely yield high frequencies of both false positive and false negative results. Diagnosis should include spirometry using an exercise/environment specific challenge in combination with the athlete's history of asthma symptoms.
