Abstract: Background-Aerobic training has a number of well known beneficial eVects in both normal and asthmatic children. However, the impact of training on the clinical management of the underlying bronchial asthma remains controversial, particularly in the most severe patients. Methods-Clinicalevaluation, spirometric tests, symptom limited maximum exercise testing, and exercise challenge tests were performed in a group of children with stable moderate to severe asthma. Forty two patients (24 boys) aged 8-16 were evalu… Show more

“…These effects have been mainly attributed to an improvement in the ventilatory capacity and physical fitness as well as a decrease in dyspnea, exercise-induced bronchospasm severity, and use of corticosteroids (7,13,36,46). These clinical benefits have also suggested a possible anti-inflammatory effect of aerobic training on asthma.…”

“…The performance of aerobic training in asthmatic patients triggers several beneficial effects such as the improvement in physical fitness and ventilatory capacity and a decrease in asthma-related symptoms, exercise-induced bronchospasm, and daily use of inhaled steroids (7,13,36,46). Aerobic training has been shown to modulate the immune response in healthy individuals; however, its effect depends on training intensity (42).…”

“…Os asmáticos menos condicionados podem melhorar sua aptidão física por meio de um programa de treinamento físi-co. Cochrane e Clark (24) observaram aumento no VO 2 max de 62% para 76% (p = 0,001) em 18 asmáticos submetidos a um programa de treinamento físico com duração de três meses. Outros pesquisadores observaram igualmente melhora na capacidade aeróbia com o treinamento físico (25)(26)(27) . Entretanto, Bundgaard et al (25) e Neder et al (27) não verificaram redução na ocorrência de BIE após o período de treinamento físico.…”

“…Aerobic physical training triggers several beneficial effects in asthmatic patients such as improvement in physical fitness and ventilatory capacity and a decrease in asthma-related symptoms, exerciseinduced bronchospasm, and daily use of inhaled steroids (15)(16)(17)(18). Other investigators have demonstrated that asthmatic patients submitted to an aerobic physical training program also present improved respiratory and peripheral muscle strength and function (19,20).…”
