Abstract
PURPOSE: Bronchial Thermoplasty, a novel therapeutic bronchoscopic procedure that reduces the amount of airway smooth muscle, has the potential to decrease asthma symptoms due to bronchoconstriction. A randomized, multicenter study (Asthma Intervention Research [AIR] Trial), examined the effect of Bronchial Thermoplasty on asthma status of moderate to severe-persistent asthmatics after they were destabilized by limiting their asthma medication to inhaled corticosteroids(ICS) alone.
