Background. Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of the drug Foster (fixed combination of beclomethasone di-propionate 100 mcg and formoterol 6 micrograms per single dose) in metered-dose aerosol inhaler technology Modulite® in patients with bronchial asthma (BA). Methods. Prospective non comparative multicenter open observational study. Study group consisted of 120 practicing physicians from the 92 hospitals in 21 cities of Russia. Analyzed 557 case report forms of patients with moderate persistent asthma treated with Foster during 12 weeks who needed to correct the basic therapy (according to asthma control criteria GINA 2006). Results. The effectiveness of treatment with Foster was observed in 555 (99,6%) of 557 patients, who showed improvement in lung function, decreased severity of symptoms, reducing the need for symptomatic therapy compared with baseline and improved asthma control in general. Conclusions. In most cases, control over moderate and severe persistent asthma can be improved by the combined therapy of inhaled steroids (ICS) and в2-agonist long-acting (LABA). In this case, Foster is a drug of choice with a fixed combination of ICS and LABA. Extra-fine form of the drug (thanks to innovative technology Modulite®) is evenly distributed in central and peripheral airways, providing good therapeutic effect of using of low doses of ICS and reducing the likelihood of side effects.

In patients with severe bronchial asthma (BA) of professional origin, with the additional appointment of Tiotropium bromide on the background of combined therapy with inhaled glucocorticosteroids and long-acting b2-agonists, functional parameters improve, the proportion of days with good BA control increases, the total number of exacerbations decreases and the period increases to the first severe exacerbation.

Цель. Анализ характера терапии бронхиальной астмы, а также течения беременности у пациенток с бронхиальной астмой в период с 2002 по 2017 г. Материалы и методы. С 2002 по 2017 г. обследованы и проходили наблюдение в период беременности 3890 пациенток, страдающих бронхиальной астмой. Проводилось комплексное клинико-функциональное обследование. Пациентки находились под наблюдением акушера-гинеколога весь срок беременности, проходили стандартное обследование, оценивалась частота осложнений беременности. Было проведено сравнение характера базисной терапии бронхиальной астмы в группах пациенток с персистирующим течением заболевания, наблюдавшихся с 2002 по 2009 г. (1-я группа) и с 2010 по 2017 г. (2-я группа) в сопоставлении с частотой встречаемости осложнений беременности в данных группах. Результаты. При сравнении частоты встречаемости угрозы прерывания беременности, гипертензивных расстройств, преэклампсии выявлена достоверно более низкая частота встречаемости этих осложнений беременности во 2-й группе (2010-2017 гг.). При этом частота назначения ингаляционных глюкокортикостероидов (ИГКС) в составе комбинированных препаратов возросла с 21,79 до 63,87, что практически в три раза превышает данный показатель в 1-й группе (2002-2009 гг.). Заключение. При сопоставлении изменений в характере базисной терапии, произошедших с 2002 по 2017 г., с достоверным снижением частоты встречаемости осложнений беременности в группе, наблюдавшейся с 2010 по 2017 г., можно предположить, что именно терапия комбинированными препаратами ИГКС/ агонистов Р2-адренорецпторов длительного действия позволяет наиболее полноценно обеспечивать контроль бронхиальной астмы, приводя к снижению частоты осложнений беременностиStudy goal. To analyse asthma therapy in pregnant women with bronchial asthma at a period since 2002 to 2017. Materials and methods. 3890 pregnant women with asthma were examined and followed up during pregnancy at a period since 2002 to 2017. Comprehensive clinicalfunctional examination was conducted. Patients were under surveillance of the obstetriciangynecologist during the whole pregnancy, standard procedures were carried out, and the frequency of complications of pregnancy was estimated. Basic therapy of asthma was compared in groups with the persistent asthma duration, followed up since 2002 to 2009 (1 group) and since 2010 to 2017 (2 group). Also, frequency of pregnancy complications was estimated in these groups. Results. The second group (2010-2017) demonstrated reliably lower frequency of threatening abortion, hypertension and preeclampsia. At the same time the frequency of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) administration as a part of the combined therapy increased from 21.79 to 63.87 (almost to three times) in comparison with the first group (2002-2009). Conclusions. Combined therapy with ICS/LABA provides most complete control of bronchial asthma, and decreases frequency of pregnancy complications in pregnant women with BA.
