title: [Mucociliary function in acute pneumonia].
abstract: Radioaerosol method was employed to follow up mucociliary transport (MT) efficacy in 97 patients with acute pneumonia (AP). The most pronounced suppression of MT was found in repeated and lingering AP. If causative agents were represented by adenoviruses, streptococci and influenza bacillus suppression of MT appeared more noticeable. Correlations of MT with pulmonary ventilation support the role of mucociliary insufficiency in genesis of bronchial obstruction in AP. The majority of the convalescents fail to achieve complete recovery of MT.
