We documented six anesthesia-related complications; three (0.03%) in D&C procedures (laryngospasm not requiring intubation [n = 2] and respiratory stridor) and three (0.30%) in D&E procedures (laryngospasm requiring intubation, seizure, and hypotension/bradycardia). Only one patient (0.01%) required intubation.

What is exercise-induced bronchoconstriction?

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, or EIB, is the preferred term for what was known for years as exercise-induced asthma. Symptoms develop when airways narrow as a result of physical activity. As many as 90 percent of people with asthma also have EIB, but not everyone with EIB has asthma.

How is exercise-induced bronchitis (EIB) managed in patients without underlying asthma?

For patients without underlying asthma, management of EIB should focus on relief of bronchoconstriction, and the reduction in risk (or prevention entirely) of the occurrence of bronchoconstriction, to allow the patient to continue to engage in physical exercise with minimal respiratory symptoms.

Does exercise trigger bronchial obstruction in asthmatic patients?

Although some authors consider EIA as a distinct asthma phenotype [4], it is quite evident that exercise may trigger bronchial obstruction and clinical symptoms in almost all asthmatic patients, independently from the causes and mechanisms of the underlying asthma.
