[Analysis of fenoterol efficacy given as an aerosol using various mouth pieces].

The effect of different mouth pieces on efficacy of fenoterol was studied in 40 patients with atopic and non-atopic bronchial asthma with reversible bronchial constriction. Four devices were studied: standard MDI unit, MDI unit with Boehringer and Astra mouth pieces, MDI unit with spacer. PEF values were registered 7 hours following inhalation. Statistical differences were not significant within the whole group. In selected older patients (above 60 years of age) spacer and Astra mouth pieces produced significant changes.

[Gold salts in the treatment of bronchial asthma].

Gold salts are used mainly in the therapy of rheumatoid diseases. Thanks to their immunoregulative and antiinflammatory properties they may be used in treatment of chronic bronchial asthma. In order to study the efficacy of gold salts in such therapy the authors studied the effect of Solganal B (Schering) in 8 patients with chronic steroid dependent bronchial asthma. In 6 patients a clinical improvement was observed enabling to lower the steroid dose. Basing on this pilot study we believe that gold salts have an beneficial effect on the course of chronic bronchial asthma.
