Analyzing the results of Mantoux tests with 2 TE made 7 times for 5 years in 750-850 schoolchildren of the settlement of Sulak has demonstrated that the infection rates are on the increase on the one hand, and, due to material and transport problems, the proportion of examinees from a risk group decreases to 10-30% of those to be examined, on the other hand. The authors suggest that the remaining unexamined children should undergo chemotherapy with 2-3 antituberculosis drugs for 3 months so as to perform an examination when the first opportunity occurs. They propose to examine the coverage of children, except for children and adolescents with a hyperergic and increasing reactions and those with a highly positive (15-16 mm) Mantoux test. An algorithm for implementation of the above measures is offered. |
