Abstract

Epidemiological situation of both acute and chronic respiratory diseases in the District of Pakrac in the period 1981-1987 is presented in this review, with a special attention paid to chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases. The results obtained in 1987 have been compared to those from 1981. Morbidity rate as well as the rate of sick-leaves to and over thirty days are also shown. Respiratory dieseases have been found to be the main cause of absence from work as well as of the high health care costs. To ensure better health of the population, it is necessary to rearrange the whole health care system.
