Effect of Whole Body Periodic Acceleration on Airway Endothelial Function in Healthy Smokers, Non-smokers and Asthmatics

University of Miami·interventional·Posted Oct 4, 2010·Updated Aug 10, 2016

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Whole Body Periodic Acceleration (WBPA) and Sham WBPA for Healthy and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 45 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

In the present proposal the investigators wish to assess the effect of a single session with the device known as Exer-Rest® which applies Whole Body Periodic Acceleration (WBPA) on baseline airway blood flow (Qaw) and in Qaw variation, in current smokers, glucocorticoid-naïve asthmatics, and age-matched healthy never-smokers, with the expectation that the treatment will transiently increase the Qaw, and to a greater extent in the current smokers and patients with asthma who have endothelial dysfunction.
