ABSTRACT
The reactive airway dysfunction syndrome (RADS), a subset of irritant-induced asthma, has been described following exposure to various irritant gas. We describe a case of RADS occuring following a single exposure to high levels of chlorine gas in the workplace. No documented pre-existing respiratory illness and atopy was identified. Cough, dyspnea, and wheezing were developed with the single accidental exposure to chlorine gas and methacholine provocation test was positive. He was completely recovered with the treatment of corticosteroid and oxygen therapy.
