title: [Clinical characteristics of patients emergently hospitalized with pulmonary hemorrhage].
abstract: Analyzing the data on 1812 patients with respiratory diseases, mainly pulmonary tuberculosis, urgently admitted to a tuberculosis hospital for the pulmonary hemorrhage (PH) syndrome during 5.5 years showed that there was no seasonal prevalence in the development of a complication. There was a steady-state regularity of the prevalent admission of patients to hospital from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and no hemorrhage in 39% of them on admission. Evidence was provided for the low diagnostic value of hemoptysis in assessing the prediction of the developed PH syndrome. In PH syndrome, the hospital mortality decreased by 2.6 times (from 20.0 to 7.7%) due to a wider use of the artificial hypotension method, endoscopic bronchial blockade, to the development and introduction of new modes of intraoperative protection and sanitation of the tracheobronchial tree, to the prevention of asphyxia, hemo-aspiration pneumonia, and its pathogenetically resultant acute progression of tuberculosis.
