  • Title: [The effect of bronchial reactivity on the hemodynamics of the pulmonary circulation in the early diagnosis of chronic non-specific lung diseases].

    Abstract:
    For the early diagnostics of chronic nonspecific pulmonary disease reversible functional disorders in persons without any symptoms and those with manifest obstruction should be identified. Provocation tests with acetylcholine-ultrasonic-aerosol have proved themselves. In 25 persons without any respiratory symptoms and in 27 patients with manifest obstruction the reactions of increased airway resistance to the hemodynamic of the pulmonary circuit were studied. It is possible to separate clearly groups with different pulmonary artery stream resistance measured by means of microheart-catheterization after inhalation of 0.01% acetylcholine-ultrasonic-aerosol.
