Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Determine the acute effects of increasing doses of inhaled bicarbonate on mucociliary clearance after a single inhalation

    single dose escalation

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • comparison of pre- and post-bicarbonate exhaled breath condensate pH values at a single inhalation

    two doses in single day

  • Safety as determined by pre- and post-clearance assay pulmonary function tests (FEV1) at a single visit

    two doses in single day

Study Arms (1)

sodium bicarbonate

EXPERIMENTAL

Procedure: sodium bicarbonate

Interventions
