[Organization of detection of patients with nonspecific diseases of the lung and their ambulatory care].
The rate of nonspecific diseases of the lungs among urban and rural population of the Novosibirsk Region was studied by using two-stage screening. It was shown that the number of tuberculous patients per 100,000 adults in the Region as a whole was in 1985-1987 the following: 860.0-1497.0 persons with chronic bronchitis and 170.0-187.0 persons with bronchial asthma. An increase in the number of the persons with chronic bronchitis and bronchial asthma among the inhabitants of both Novosibirsk and the Region was stated. On the basis of these data a scheme for differential dispensary observation was developed. The scheme includes combined prophylactic and treatment programs. The developed organizational grounds for the prophylaxis, early detection and treatment promoted a decrease in primary invalidism due to nonspecific respiratory diseases among the inhabitants of Novosibirsk from 2.2 per 10,000 workers in 1985 to 1.6 in 1987. The respective figures for the inhabitants of the Region were 4.7 and 3.9.
