[Rehabilitation in asthmatic diseases].

The early recognition of an asthmatic disease is important for optimal treatment and rehabilitation with a long lasting success. The knowledge, that bronchial asthma is always accompanied by a chronic inflammatory process of the airways, necessitates the early application of antiphlogistic substances like glucocorticoids as well as weaker substances like DNCG and nedocromil. Therefore, the basic therapy of patients with asthma of the severity II to III should be a combination of beta-2-agonists and antiphlogistic drugs. The pharmacological therapy has to be accompanied by a practical health training (ashtma and antiobstructive training). This is the only way to accomplish an optimal treatment with a correct inhalation, professional usage of ventilation aids, and a convincing recording of peak-flow-values. Rehabilitation of patients with asthma is team work. Beside physicians, co-therapists like psychologists, dietitians, and trained nurses have to be employed.
