[Effects of positive oscillatory expiratory pressure on functional condition of patients with chronic diseases of the lungs].
Clinical and cardiorespiratory findings in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) stage I and IIA and the results of exercise tolerance tests in patients with mild and moderate bronchial asthma (BA) at a remission stage were studied for effects of positive oscillatory expiratory pressure created in respiration through flatter on exercise adaptation. It was proved that breathing through flatter before exercise tolerance test raises tolerance to exercise in COPD patients, modifies a cardiorespiratory response in direction of its optimization and lowers nonspecific bronchial hyperreactivity in BA patients.
