New aspects of atopic bronchial asthma treatment with air-cleaning apparatus “AIR-O-MED 150”
Abstract
To evaluate the clinical efficiency of the air-cleaning devices (ACD) “Air-O-med” use during complex therapy of atopic bronchial asthma patients 14 women and 6 men were examined which were treated during exacerbation with ACD placed in wardrooms. After reaching clinical remission, the apparatus was distributed among the patients for use at home during 3 to 4 months with the authorised method. The results of the study testifies that ACD allow to achieve clinical remission more faster with less quantity of used drugs, to prolong the remission, and to decrease the frequency of hospitalisation when using ACD at home.
