Abstract
With emphysema now ranking second among causes of disability in men past 40, Dr. Haas believes that careful reappraisal of the criteria for hospitalization in this disease is indicated. Critical to this reappraisal, he maintains, is recognition that many patients now “written oil'” as hopeless cripples may be returned to “the dignity of economic and social independence.”
