[Impact of active detection and treatment of patients with tuberculosis on fatal outcomes].
The influence of medical factors, such as active detection of the disease and therapeutic efficiency within the first-year follow-up, on the outcome of tuberculosis was studied. It was ascertained that about half the patients with active tuberculosis could not be undetected if goal-oriented measures to attract persons to screening were not made. Fatal outcomes were more common in patients with untimely diagnosed disseminated tuberculosis with bacterial isolation and decay. The patient's awareness of the disease and readiness to contact medical staff are of great importance for good results of therapy and recovery.
