The intensive method of specific hyposensibilisation with bacterial allergens in infectional-allergic bronchial asthma

Abstract

The effectiveness of the intensive method of specific hyposensibilization with bacterial allergens, Neisseria perflava and Staphylococcus aureus, was investigated in 30 patients with infectional-allergic bronchial asthma. All the patients were examined before and after 6 months of treatment with clinical and allergical methods; the respiratory function and the bronchial reactivity were evaluated. After 6 months of the treatment, there was an excellent effect in 10% of the patients, a good one in 60% of latters, a satisfactory effect in 27% of the patients. No effects were noted in 3% of the patients. The bronchial reactivity decreased after the treatment.
