Clinical Trial Summary

The effects of regular exercise on asthma control has not yet been well demonstrated. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of submaximal physical exercise on quality of life, on symptomatic control, and on bronchial and systemic inflammatory markers in patients with persistant asthma.


Clinical Trial Description

While it is well known that intense physical exercise can generate bronchospasm and limit exercise performance, it recently appeared that regular physical exercise practiced aerobically could improve the clinical status of asthmatic patients. The investigators are planning a 12-week randomized controlled study to assess the effect of regular aerobic exercise on quality of life, asthma control, bronchial hyperresponsiveness and bronchial and systemic inflammation in patients with persistent asthma The hypothesis is that regular physical exercise increases control and quality of life and reduces inflammation and bronchial hyperresponsiveness compared to simple physiotherapy sessions. ;
