OPPORTUNITIES TO DIAGNOSE ACTIVE TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PATIENTS WITH CLINICALLY CURED RESPIRATORY TUBERCULOSIS

Abstract
Goal of the study: to evaluate the test with tuberculous recombinant allergen (TRA) in the patients with effective treatment course due to tuberculosis, to investigate the impact of clinical, epidemiological and social factors on persistence of active tuberculosis.
Materials and methods. Patients were divided into 2 groups basing on time period after completion of the main treatment course. Group I – 32 patients (up to 6 months), group II – 63 patients (more than 6 months).
Results of the study. Results of TRA tests in Group I remained positive in 34.4% of patients and in Group II - 23.8%. The average size of the induration in Group I made 10 mm(95% CI 6.5-13.3), in Group II – 13 mm (95% CI 8.4-19.7) Patients from Group I had positive results of TRA test more often in case of initial infiltrate form of pulmonary tuberculosis and bacillary excretion. In patients from Group II the positive TRA results correlated with presence of concurrent conditions and exposure to a tuberculosis case in the past. Positive results were confidently more often observed in lonely patients in both groups. TRA test can be a valuable tool to evaluate the risk of tuberculosis relapse after completion of the main treatment course.
