Abstract
We have created the experimental model of chronic inflammation of lungs by means of prolonged mechanical irritation of the bronchi in 30 outbred rats and studied the morphological changes in the lung tissue of these animals rats in three series of experiments. Each rat was given an intraperitoneal injection of an ozonised saline solution produced by a «Binafsha» ozonator. The objective of the study was to compare a control group of healthy animals and the group of experimental animals with chronic purulent pneumonia. The prolonged irritation of the respiratory tract in experimental animals was found to induce the structural changes in the tissues of the lungs characteristic of chronic purulent inflammation. The course of treatment with the ozonised saline solution in healthy animals with experimentally modelled chronic purulent inflammation of the lungs did not have a negative impact on the general condition and the behaviour of the animals. The treatment of experimental chronic inflammation of lungs caused by prolonged mechanical irritation of the respiratory tract resulted in the improvement of the morphological status of the laboratory animals, but the purulent inflammation process failed to be completely resolved after the treatment which needs to be taken into consideration in the clinical practice.
