[Pulmonary tuberculosis convalescents (group IV D) at the outpatient tuberculosis and lung disease clinics in Poland 1967-1986].
An analysis of risk rates of tuberculosis incidence in convalescents registered in tuberculosis dispensaries in Poland in the years 1967-1986 was made. In Poland they are registered in group IVD. Since 1978 this group is steadily decreasing although in 1986 it made up 1.27% of the whole country's population, and was the highest risk group. In 1986 the risk of a tuberculosis infection was six fold higher in this group, and eight fold higher confirmed bacteriologically. Out of this group 8.3% of new infections are derived, and 11.1% of freshly diagnosed cases of bacteriologically confirmed tuberculosis. Heterogeneity of this group suggests different proceedings.
