[Importance of nonspecific and specific bronchoprokocative test in diagnosing allergic bronchial asthma]. / Znacaj nespecificnih i specificnih bronhoprovokacionih testova u dijagnostici alergijske bronhijalne astme.

The paper is aimed at illustrating the importance of nonspecific and specific bronchoprovokative tests for diagnosing allergic bronchial asthma by pathophysiologic mechanisms of hyperiritability of airways and making of specific "schok tissue". Besides we tried to explain these exeptional cases which we encounter in our practise, where patients, in spite of absence of any complaints related to breathing, normal physical, findings and normal ventilation function tests, have positive specific or nonspecific bronchoprovocative tests. Evaluation of these condition, as a specific stage in development of allergic bronchial asthma, we concluded that nonspecific and specific bronchoprovokative tests is also important for evaluation of possible occurence of this disease as well as deciding on its prevention.
