[The dynamics of the indices of reactivity of the body in patients with chronic bronchitis and bronchiectasis in the course of treatment].

Complex determination of lymphocyte functional activity and the condition of the organism's immunological values in patients with chronic bronchitis and bronchiectasis helps in obtaining additional objective information which makes it possible to appraise the severity of the course of the disease, correct the treatment and determine its efficacy in different stages of the disease, come to a decision in regard to operative intervention, and form a judgement on the fullness of recovery. These tests acquire additional diagnostic value in patients with mild clinical manifestations of the disease as well as in the absence of its laboratory signs. A direct dependence between the severity of the disease and the above named values was revealed.
