Cold Air Challenge Test System

Model "TurboAire Challenger" A cold air generator for cold air challenge testing. The TurboAire Challenger is a cost effective substitute for drug induced bronchospasm. Since no drugs or chemicals are administered, the patient risk is lower. The patient needs to be monitored for only one-half hour following the conclusion of the exposure to cold air, not the 2 to 4 hours suggested for drug related brochial provocation methods. The TurboAire Challenger is an excellent source of portable arctic air for pronchial provocation and Exercise Induced Asthma studies throughout the year. Perform bronchial challenge using cold air, without the wait or worry associated with obtaining methacoline. Schedule tests when convenient. The TurboAire Challenger supplies cold air any time, anywhere. The TurboAire Challenger has been marketed since 1984 and is preferred by research and clinical personnel to provide cold air for bronchial challenge.
