Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Jenny B. is an active 12-year-old white female who recently stopped participating in junior high school track because of respiratory symptoms she experiences while running. On presentation to her pediatrician's office for a consultation, it immediately became apparent that she was anxious to rejoin her team to compete. This article will navigate through a patient case and explore multiple clinical approaches to exercise-induced broncho-spasm from diagnosis to treatment. As clinicians, our goal is to partner with all patients who experience asthma or respiratory symptoms, enabling them to have a life without limitations. Let us review Jenny B.'s case and examine what might be the best approach to get her back on track.
