Аннотация The research goal is to reveal influence of laser therapy on endobronchial changes and integrated indicator of inflammatory process in complex treatment of patients with chronic bronchitis. 64 patients with chronic bronchitis divided into 2 clinical groups have been under study: 33 patients with chronic purulent obstructive bronchitis and 31 - with chronic purulent nonobstructive bronchitis. Bronchial fibroscopic investigation of mucous membrane of bronchial tubes and biochemical research of blood have been performed to reveal endobronchitis degree and integrated indicator of inflammatory process. Indicators have been expressed in points: under 1 - moderated, 1-2 - expressed and more than 2 points - sharp changes. Results have demonstrated that the combination of drug therapy with endobronchial laser irradiation has an optimum anti-inflammatory effect indicated by decrease of endobronchitis degree - 1,12 and 0,81 points and integrated indicator - 1,75 and 0,75 (Р <0,01). That allows to recommend introduction of endobronchial laser irradiation into the complex therapy of chronic bronchitis
