title: [The dynamics of the tuberculosis endemic in Hunedoara County 1982-1992].
abstract: A retrospective study through the analysis of the main epidemiological indices of tuberculosis endemic in the Hunedoara district, in comparison with the mean level for the whole country, was performed over a period of 10 years (1982-1991) (data given by the "M.Nasta" Pneumophthisiology Institute). The main epidemiological indices analysed were: general morbidity both in adults and children, for new cases and relapses apart, mortality through tuberculosis, main bacteriological indices, prevalence of Tb cases. The data in Tb infection incidence and prevalence could not be included in the study. This study is a starting point for new epidemiological evaluations within the district, in those areas with a Tb incidence higher than the district average value, in order to define additional measures of Tb control.
