The exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a temporary and reversible obstruction of airflow, which usually occurs after a period of strenuous and short exercise. This limitation after exercise can become concern in that it excludes or discourages individuals to practice the exercise, either in physical education, sports participation, or in the realization of physical activity in search of health. The EIB in adolescents has been little studied. This knowledge can be helpful for the teacher. Objectives: To estimate the prevalence and evaluate factors associated with exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) in adolescents from 13 to 14 years in the city of Capivari de Baixo - SC. Methods: A cross-sectional study in public schools and state Capivari de Baixo - SC, where data were collected on 220 adolescents ages 13 to 14 years in 2011. Measurements were carried prevalence ratio (PR), Chi-square and logistic regression analysis for data analysis. The level of significance was 95%. This study is based on Resolution 196/96 National Health and was approved by the CEP Unisul. Results: The prevalence of EIB was 19.1% (95% CI 14.0 to 24.0). The EIB was significantly associated with asthma (p < 0,0001), PR 3.6 (95% CI 2.17 to 5.97), and Odds Ratio (OR) of 5.8 (95% CI, 2, 75 to 12.45). Age, sex, father with asthma, asthmatic parent, sibling asthma, passive smoking, body mass index (BMI), waist and hip circumference ratio (WHR) were not significantly associated with EIB. Signs and symptoms such as cough and dyspnea showed significant association to the BIE (p< 0.02) and (p < 0.04), respectively. Conclusion: The prevalence of EIB was 19.1%, and asthma was the only factor associated with the BIE. This result, among others, is important for the physical education teacher, alerting him to the perception of cases in class and dosage of exercise intensities.
