Clinical efficacy of bronchodilators in equine asthma: Looking for minimal important difference.

In conclusion, bronchodilator pharmacotherapy in equine asthma elicits clinically meaningful effect when RL increases ≥1 cm H2 O/L/s, a value indicating the MID. Assessing the MID based on change in RL may improve the quality of evidence and the scientific impact of future clinical trials as it extends beyond the simple, and limiting, evaluation of statistical significance.
