Death during an attack of bronchial asthma is relatively rare, however, since such an outcome is possible, the study of its causes is of practical importance. As you know, people with long-term bronchial asthma develop chronic bronchitis, pulmonary emphysema and ultimately pulmonary heart disease, which can be the main cause of death.
