Svensk definition
Astmaanfall till följd av fysisk ansträngning. Anfallen är oftast kortvariga och avklingar spontant. Svårighetsgraden av attackerna är ofta beroende av yttre faktorer i samband med ansträngningen. Ina ndning av kall luft, t ex, förvärrar andnöden, medan varm och fuktig luft kan dämpa eller helt förhindra uppkomsten av astmaanfall.
Engelsk definition
Asthma attacks following a period of exercise. Usually the induced attack is short-lived and regresses spontaneously. The magnitude of postexertional airway obstruction is strongly influenced by the environment in which exercise is performed (i.e. inhalation of cold air during physical exertion markedly augments the severity of the airway obstruction; conversely, warm humid air blunts or abolishes it).
