ABSTRACT
A study in 84 patients with dust-induced bronchitis receiving combined drug treatment, hyperbaric oxygenation, hypobarotherapy and artificial speleotherapy indicates that the first place by its efficacy is occupied by artificial speleotherapy resulting in an improvement of the functional indices of the cardiopulmonary system. The second place is occupied by hypobaric regimen. Hyperbaric oxygenation was of low efficacy.

Examination of 76 patients with pneumoconiosis (stage I) revealed that hyperbaric oxygenation is increasing the force of cardiac contractions, reduction of the general peripheral resistance and reduction of the lesser circulation hypertension. The therapeutic action of hyperbaric oxygenation is related to its ability to remove the sequels of oxygen.
