[Evaluation of initial supervised and integrated treatment of tuberculosis].
The operational and technical efficiencies were evaluated, of the initial, intermittently administered chemotherapy, supervised and integrated by the general medical network. The treatment was applied in 160 patients detected in 53 rural medical districts. It was noted that under the operational aspect the treatment was applied in 100% of the eligible patients, and administration of all the necessary doses was achieved in 91,6% of the patients. Bacteriological negativation by the direct examination was obtained after three months and negative cultures were obtained in 93,3% of the patients at three months and in 97,4% of all patients after 9 and 12 months. Closure (filling) of the cavities was obtained in 75,4% of the cases after three months of treatment, and in 87,7% of all cases after 9 and 12 months. Finally the technical efficiency was completed by an assessment of the socio-professional recovery, that was achieved in 91,8% of the cases.
