Summary

Introduction

Кашель — один из наиболее распространенных и важных симптомов заболеваний детского возраста. При этом защитную функцию кашель может выполнять только при определенных реологических свойствах мокроты (патологического секрета дыхательных путей, выделяемого при кашле или отхаркивании). Необходимо подчеркнуть, что у детей (особенно раннего возраста) кашель чаще всего обусловлен повышенной вязкостью бронхиального секрета, нарушением скольжения мокроты по бронхиальному дереву, недостаточной активностью мерцательного эпителия бронхов и сокращения бронхиол.
