On functional emphysema and its significance for diagnosis, forecasting and assessing the performance of asthmatics
According to the prevailing views, an asthmatic is considered to be a patient in whom sudden attacks of shortness of breath alternate with periods of complete well-being and in whom, with a prolonged existence of the disease, especially in cases where severe attacks of the disease are often repeated, chronic bronchitis and emphysema appear. In other cases, chronic bronchitis is first detected, on the basis of which asthma develops only later.
