Abstract
The objective was to assess risk of acute bronchitis due to the use of the split-system. Materials and methods: Data were collected at the healthcare districts covered by the outpatient department of the 4th City Hospital of Sevastopol. Results: The use of the split-system without regular cleaning is a risk factor for health, which is associated with a 3.5-fold increase of the incidence of acute bronchitis. Regular cleaning of the split-system decreases risk of acute bronchitis to the level comparable to that of subjects who do not use an air conditioning system. Conclusion: Measures for regular cleaning of the split-system are recommended to manage risk of acute bronchitis.
