[Organization of antituberculosis aid to patients with HIV infection in Russia].
According to the data of the WHO European Regional Office, Russia is now among the countries of Europe, in which tuberculosis and HIV infection are a most pressing problem. In this connection, it has been necessary to promptly determine measures to improve the epidemiological situation. For their elaboration within the high-leveled working tuberculosis group, the ad hoc group "Tuberculosis in patients with HIV infection" working jointly with WHO specialists has been set up in Russia. This paper gives the basic activity lines required for organizing the systems of prevention, epidemiological surveillance, detection of tuberculosis, medical and diagnostic antituberculous aid to patients with HIV infection in Russia.
