[Organization of early detection of patients with tuberculosis in Moscow].
The tuberculosis mortality rate is largely determined by the organization of early identification of patients with this disease in the general population. At present the volume of prophylactic surveys has reduced, but, nevertheless, they are the method of choice in detecting tuberculosis in time. Since the prevalence of tuberculosis greatly differs in different populations, prophylactic examinations must be differential in relation to the risk of disease or epidemiological hazards. Increasing the coverage of prophylactic examinations of risk groups by 10% allows one to increase the identification of patients with tuberculosis by 1.6 times in them, that by 8.0% enhances it by 1.9 times. Since the socioeconomic conditions have changed and the logistics is poor, the most effective existing actions should be taken.
