title: [Chronic bronchitis: development stages, perspectives for prevention].
abstract: Chronic bronchitis is problem number 1 in modern pulmology. There are four basic stages in its formation and development. The patients go to a doctor, as a rule, already in the third stage of the disease. Diagnosis of chronic bronchitis in the two earlier stages opens realistic perspectives for prophylaxis of the disease.
