Theoretical substantiation and practical application of local therapy of respiratory diseases in children

Abstract

When studying the age structure of children with broncho-obstructive syndrome (BOS), it was noted that broncho-obstruction was most often observed in children between 0 and 7 years of age. The children were divided by age as follows: the first year of life – 5 children; from 1 to 4 years old - 8 children and from 4 to 7 years old – 47 children. There were 35 boys and 25 girls among the studied children. The study of anamnestic data made it possible to identify risk factors for the development of BOS in young children. The most important factors contributing to the development of the disease were: early artificial feeding of children (in 70% of cases), severe allergic history (in 51.6% of cases) and bronchial hyperreactivity (in 40% of cases). The following main symptoms were noted in these children: expiratory shortness of breath, dry unproductive obsessive cough, distant wheezing and dry whistling wheezing. In 50% of the children, a burdened epidemiological history was found, because on the eve of the disease, they were in contact with ARVI patients.
