Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Intraoperative bronchospasm challenges anesthesia's safety. This study aims to investigate high concentration of exhaled nitric oxide as a marker of intraoperative bronchospasm.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Previous studies in asthmatic patients suggested that exhaled nitric oxide may represent a noninvasive measure for airway inflammation. Anesthesia information forms from 1999 throughout 2004 were revised (n=146.358). Bronchospasm occurrence appeared registered on 863 forms. From those, nine were identified as non-asthmatics patients (Bronchospasm group). Also, 12 asthmatics constituted one additional group (Asthma group) and 10 subjects with no previous airway disease or symptoms (Control group). All subjects were submitted to Exhaled nitric oxide measurements (parts/billion), spirometry and induced sputum.
