  • Title: [Bronchologic studies in the asthma syndrome].
    Author: Székely E.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd; 1983 Mar; 131(3):132-3. PubMed ID: 6855779.
    Abstract:
    A comparison is made between today's results in bronchological examinations, and those of 1969 published in Monatsschr Kinderheilkd (1969) 117:611-613. Nowadays bronchial disorders are diagnosed more often by 13.95 compared to data a decade ago. This is not due to an absolute growth of numbers of cases but to a more precise method of diagnosis. Furthermore, chronic bronchitis in children previously accounted for only 76 cases but now is diagnosed in 25% of the total. No doubt the pediatrician has to reckon with this disease. The frequency of bacterial infections decreased from 48% to 23%; certainly this is related to massive antibiotic pretreatment. Attention is repeatedly drawn to the importance of diagnosing anatomical disorders.
