Description
Summary:The study presents the analysis of drug susceptibility of tuberculosis mycobacteria isolated from pulmonary tuberculosis patients by the moment of their registration in 2013 on the territory of Vladimir region. Totally 574 pulmonary tuberculosis patients were registered. Of them 432 were new cases, 78 relapses and other cases (in particular treatment failures and defaults) made 64 persons. All the groups demonstrated the increase of multiple drug resistance: in 101 (28.5%) cases of all infectious patients who had drug susceptibility tests done. Among new cases and relapses – 69 (25.9%) and 24 (46.2%) isolates of tuberculosis mycobacteria respectively.
