The contribution of A supergiant stars to the return of mass and energy to the interstellar medium is not very important. Abbott (1982) analised a sample of early stars and concluded that B and A supergiants provided less than 8 % of the mass input to the ISM by stellar winds. However, A-type supergiants are important in the framework of the stellar winds-mass loss phenomenology since they are located at the boundary between hot and cool stars, where radiative acceleration may not be sufficiently efficient to drive the wind.
