The viscoelastic heterogeneity of the bronchial contents and the sputum in patients with chronic bronchitis

Some characteristics of viscous elastic heterogeneity of the sputum are more closely related to coughing productivity than the mean viscosity and elasticity parameters; no such differences are known as regards bronchial patency. Some characteristics of viscous elastic heterogeneity of the bronchial...

Summary:Some characteristics of viscous elastic heterogeneity of the sputum are more closely related to coughing productivity than the mean viscosity and elasticity parameters; no such differences are known as regards bronchial patency. Some characteristics of viscous elastic heterogeneity of the bronchial contents are more closely related to endobronchitis severity, secretion purulence, bronchial obstruction than to the relaxation time.
