Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study type Participant information sheet
Scientific titleAssessment of changes in ventilation following induced bronchoconstriction with inhaled histamine in normal subjects using Krypton-81m ventilation scintigraphy
Study objectivesThe aim is to increase the understanding and develop quantitative measures of regional airway function using ventilation scanning using Krypton-81m.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedRespiratory
InterventionSingle blind randomised controlled trial. The protocol compares histamine (to induce bronchoconstriction) with normal saline (as control) i.e. no bronchoconstriction.
Intervention typeDrug
PhaseNot Applicable
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Histamine
Primary outcome measure(s)1. To determine if ventilation scintigraphy can be used to determine and quantify regional changes in ventilation in the lung following histamine challenge in normal subjects
2. Also to determine the extent to which these correlate with changes in overall lung function
Key secondary outcome measure(s)Not provided at time of registration
Completion date02/07/2006
