On account of their increasing social-medical importance chronic diseases of the respiratory tract demand systematic measures for prevention and combat. The size of the problem is described on the basis of the results of epidemiologic investigations. Issuing from the risk degrees of the cardio-respiratory insufficiency (obstruction, hypoxaemia, pulmonary hypertension) care groups are proposed. The combat against tobacco smoking (primary prevention) and long-term treatment of the chronic obstructive bronchitis (tertiary prevention) stand in the foreground of the measures. The solution of this task demands a close cooperation with the basic medical care.
鉴于呼吸道慢性病日益增长的社会医学重要性，需要采取系统的预防和防治措施。根据流行病学调查结果描述了该问题的规模。从心肺功能不全（阻塞、低氧血症、肺动脉高压）的风险程度出发，提出了护理组。反对吸烟（一级预防）和慢性阻塞性支气管炎的长期治疗（三级预防）是这些措施的重点。解决这一任务需要与基础医疗保健密切合作。
