Zusammenfassung:The symposium consists of nine articles on the present concepts of pulmonary rehabilitation. Beginning with an article on humidification and nebulization therapy, it continues with articles on the use of antibiotic chemoprophylaxis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), non-aerololized bronchodilators, intermittent positive pressure breathing (a review of the literature), corticosteroids, exercise and physiotherapy, surgical treatment for bullous emphysema, and oxygen therapy. The symposium concludes with a summary of the positive aspects of pulmonary rehabilitation in 1975. (Author)
