Abstract

In patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease stage I GOLD we revealed a significant reduction of acute respiratory infections frequency after pulmonary rehabilitation using salt aerosol therapy; however, in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease stage II GOLD such a reduction we have not seen. We didn't find marked reduction of acute respiratory infections frequency also in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease stage I GOLD with higher depression level.
