A new treatment of bacterial asthma involving therapeutic exercise, massage and using a special respiration regulator improving bronchial permeability is proposed. The treatment was conducted in 118 patients aged 22-68 with 1-17-year history of asthma. The set of exercises proposed, especially in application of the regulator, improves external respiration, bronchial permeability, helps to reduce hyperventilation and arterial hypoxemia.

The artificial respiration regulator (ARR) employed by the authors belongs to the series of analogous apparatuses rendering resistance to expiration and preventing hyperventilation in broncho-obstructive syndromes. The device used is more compact and simple in management. It promotes improvement in the condition of patients with severe forms of bronchial asthma and chronic bronchitis complicated by expiration, stenosis, permits discontinuation of drugs and hormones in the majority of patients. ARR is believed efficient in the outpatient treatment of broncho-obstructive syndrome.
