title: [Analysis of lethal outcomes in patients with chronic bronchitis].
abstract: A study was made of the clinical data and autopsy protocols of 197 persons who died at a hospital of the machine-building plant. Varying bronchopulmonary pathology was discovered in 129 persons, chronic bronchitis in 80 persons. Patients with CB died in the active period of life. Acute pneumonia, cardiovascular diseases and cancer intoxication are among the most frequent causes of death of CB patients. Decompensation of chronic cor pulmonale ranks fourth in frequency, being seen in men engaged in hard physical labour, with concomitant cardial pathology, suffering from chronic alcoholism.
