Toward the Treatment of Bronchial Asthma. Wiederburg (Nervenarzt, 1928, H. 4)
Wiederburg says that asthma is a disorder of autonomic functions of the respiratory organs, depending 1) on constitutional lability of the autonomic system, 2) on exogenous allergic irritation after previous specific sensitization, 3) on mental influences that disturb the functions of the respiratory organs. Hence, rational therapy of bronchial asthma should be based on somatic and mental desensitization and restoration of normal functions of these organs. In particular it should pursue a) elimination of chronic bronchitis, b) symptomatic treatment of seizures and c) mental influence on the general well-being of the patient.
