Clinical Implications of Oscillatory Lung Function during Methacholine Bronchoprovocation Testing of Preschool Children

Figure 3

Prebaseline and postbaseline values under different conditions of stopping methacholine challenge test. Condition 1 () was applied when the test was stopped because changes in resistance and reactance reached a certain point; Condition 2 () was applied when the test was stopped due to signs of respiratory distress. Prebaseline values were significantly different between Conditions and with regard to resistance () (a) and reactance () (b). Pre- and postbaseline values in Condition were significantly different with regard to resistance () (a) and reactance () (b).
