    Area of Science:

    • Psychosomatic Medicine
    • Clinical Psychology
    • Pulmonology

    Background:

    • Bronchial asthma involves complex interactions between psychological and physiological factors.
    • Understanding these psychosomatic correlations is crucial for comprehensive patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between psychological manifestations and clinical indices in bronchial asthma.
    • To identify psychosomatic factors influencing respiratory function and disease severity.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical and psychological observation of 89 bronchial asthma patients.
    • Correlational analysis of psychological variables (anxiety, frustration, emotional tension) with respiratory function and immunoglobulin levels.

    Main Results:

    • A significant correlation system was found between psychological distress (frustration, anxiety, emotional tension, negative emotions, hypochondria, anxious-depressive tendencies) and altered respiratory function, immunoglobulin levels, and clinical asthma indices.
    • A complex psychophysiological factor of frustration and emotional tension was identified, directly linked to increased psychic alterations and somatic disorders.

    Conclusions:

    • Psychological factors play a significant role in the clinical presentation and physiological alterations of bronchial asthma.
    • These findings highlight the importance of integrating psychological interventions into asthma management strategies.
