Quality of life, more precisely health related quality of life, is gaining basic importance in evaluating of patient's health status and results of medical interventions. On the example of patients with bronchial obstruction is demonstrated that quality of life evaluation, although not usually used in clinical practice yet, is in significant correlation with some of usual clinical measures; moreover, it brings otherwise inaccessible information about patient's subjective assessment of his disease and his health situation.
