Areas (prefecture) where patients came and patient age were analyzed in 77 patients with respiratory disease who had been admitted at our hospital to have spa therapy during 6 months from January to June in 1995. Of 77 patients, 28 subjects (36.4%) were patients who lived inside Tottori prefecture, and 49 (63.6%) were outside Tottori prefecture (distant area). This suggest that the number of patients from distant area has been increasing. The numbers of patients from Hyogo prefecture (12 subjects ; 15.6%), Okayama (8 ; 10.4%), Osaka (7 ; 9.1%) and Yamaguchi (5 ; 6.5%) were larger than those from other prefectures. Regarding patient age, the numbers of patients over the age of 70 and those aged between 50 and 69 were larger in patients inside Tottori prefecture compared to other age group. In contrast, the numbers of patients aged between 60 and 69, between 50-59, and between 40 and 49 were larger in patients from distant areas than the numbers of other age groups, suggesting mean age of patients from distant areas was lower than that of patients inside Tottori prefecture. The number of patients with bronchial asthma was largest (62 subjects ; 80.5%) among different respiratory diseases.
