Abstract (2. Language): 
Objective: We prospectively 'nvest'gated the correlation between response to the treatment and age and d'sease duration 'n asthmat'c patents with pred'cted FEV1 of 50-80 %, according to changes 'n FEV1 parameter. Material and Methods: E'ghty patents completed the study. All patents regularly utilized 800¬2000 mcg/day inhaled Budeson'de and 100 mcg/day inhaled Salmeterol for three months. The patients' response rate to the treatment was calculated by comparing their initial and final FEV1 values. The statistical correlation between these response rates and patients' age [18-40 years of age (n:25); 41-60 years of age (n:37) and older than 60 years of age (n:18)] and d'sease duration [1-5 years (n:20); 6-10 years (n:18); 11-15 years (n:15); 16-20 years (n:14); longer than 20 years (n:13)] was investigated in a stepwise manner. Results: By evaluation of final FEV1 values and response rates to the treatment found by the difference between initial and final FEV1 values, no difference could be detected between 18-40 years of age and 41-60 years of age groups (p>0.05), but the values in both groups were found to be better than the older than 60 years of age group (p<0.05). Five groups, divided according to the d'sease duration, had the same response rate to the treatment (p>0.05); in comparison of the final FEV1 values, the first group was found to be better than the fifth group (p<0.05). In conclusion, response to the treatment of asthmatic patients older than 60 years of age and with longer than 20 years of disease duration was found to be comparably limited than the patients who were younger and having a disease duration of 1-5 years. Conclusion: We think that in the treatment of such patients, higher doses of inhaled drugs and/or therapeutic combinations including increased number of drugs should be preferred.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Amaç: Çalışmamızda FEV1 değerleri öngörülenin %50-80'i arasında olan astımlı hastaların FEV1 parametresinde meydana gelen değişik/iğe göre tedaviye verdik/eri cevabın yaş ve hastalık süreler' i/e olan ilişkisini prospektif olarak araştırdık Materyal-Metot: Çalışmayı 80 hasta tamamladı. Tüm hastalar üç ay boyunca düzeni' olarak inha/e 800-2000 mcg/gün Budesonide ve 100mcg/gün Salmeterol kullandılar. Hastaların çalışmanın başındaki ve sonundaki FEV1 değer/erinin karşı/aştırı/masıy/a astım tedavisinden ne oranda fayda gördükler' hesaplandı. Daha sonra bu düzelme oranları i/e basamak/ı olarak hastaların yaşı [18-40 yaş (n:25); 41-60 yaş (n:37) ve 60 yaşın üzer'ndek'ler (n:18)] ve hastalık süreler' [1-5 yıl (n:20); 6¬10 yıl (n:18); 11-15 yıl (n:15); 16-20 yıl (n:14); 20 yılın üstü (n:13)] arasındaki 'statistiki 1/işki araştırıldı. Bulgular: Yaşa göre ayrılan üç grubun son FEV1 değerler' karşılaştırmalarında ve i/k ve son FEV1 değerler' arasındaki farkın bulunmasıyla hesaplanan tedav'den fayda görme oranları bakımından 18¬40 ve 41-60 yaş grupları arasında fark saptanmazken (p>0.05), her iki gruptaki değerler de 60 yaş üstü gruptan daha 'y' bulundu (p<0.05). Hastalık süre/erine göre oluşturulan beş grup 'se tedav'den aynı oranda fayda görürken (p>0.05); son FEV11er'n'n karşılaştırılmasında birinci grup, beşinci gruba göre daha iyi bulundu (p<0.05). Sonuç olarak; 60 yaşın üzerindeki ve hastalık süresi 20 yıldan fazla olan astımlı hastaların tedaviye verdik/eri cevap daha genç ve 1-5 yıldır astımlı olan hastalara kıyasla sınırlı bulunmuştur. Sonuç: B'z bu t'p hastaların tedavi/erinde daha yüksek inha/e i/aç dozlarının ve/veya daha fazla sayıda i/aç 'çeren tedavi kombinasyon/arının tercih edilmesi gerektiğini düşünüyoruz.
