Diagnosis And Control Of Tuberculosis

Effective tuberculosis infection (TB) control measures for health care and other institutional settings are based on a hierarchy of control measures (administrative, environmental and respiratory). Administrative controls are the most important and consistent in measures to reduce the risk of exposure to people with infectious tuberculosis (that is, those with pulmonary and / or laryngeal tuberculosis). Administrative controls include careful screening of patients for symptoms and signs of tuberculosis, isolation or separation of those with suspected or confirmed tuberculosis from others (for example, in airborne infection isolation rooms for inpatients), rapid diagnosis and implementation of effective anti-tuberculosis treatment as well as measures directed by health workers (TB) (surveillance of tuberculosis infection and diseases in TS and education of all TS on TB infection control measures).
