Two hundred and sixty-seven new cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were examined to study their social characteristics of wishes in choosing a therapy regimen. It has been found that the males who are 30-59 years old, live in rural areas, unemployed, have a low education level, bad habits, and no family prefer to treat at a day-and-night hospital. Those who are 20-59 years, have secondary and higher education wish to treat at a day hospital and in a polyclinic. Pension-age individuals choose to treat at a day-and-night hospital nearly equally frequently. The patients stopped treating at a day-and-night hospital 2 times more frequently than those in a polyclinic or at a day hospital. |
