Safety of and Cellular Response to Segmental Bronchoprovocation in Allergic Asthma
Figure 1
Comparison of oxygen saturation and heart rate on D0 and 48 hours after SBP-AG (D2).
On D0, oxygen saturation and heart rate were monitored immediately before initiation of bronchoscopy, during BAL, during SBP-AG, immediately after the procedure, and at discharge. On D2, hemodynamic monitoring was done immediately before bronchoscopy, during BAL, immediately after the procedure, and at discharge. Bars represent median with 25 and 75th percentiles for subjects challenged with RW (white), HDM (gray), CAT (black). Whisker lines represent 10 and 90th percentiles. *p<0.05 compared to value for respective allergen group immediately before procedure. NS indicates there were no significant differences among allergen groups for the indicated time point.
