dc.description.abstractTuberculosis (TB) is an important health problem for our country. Tuberculosis conrol dispensaries (TCD) undertake important functions in application of national TB control programme. In this study, comparison of diagnosis methods in TB is aimed between Diyarbakir No.1 TCD and chest diseases clinics. The data of 360 cases were investigated retrospectively in Diyarbakir No.1 TCD. Systematic sample method was used in the selection of this cases within registered 916 cases between January 200? and December 2004. It was found that cases were as 270 (% 75) pulmonary TB and 90 (% 25) extra pulmonary TB. Pulmonary tuberculosis cases were as 172 (% 63.7) of smear positive 98 (% 36.3) of smear negative. Bacteriological and nonbacteriological methods were used in the 117 (% 72.2) cases and 45 (% 27.8) cases of 162 cases as diagnosed at pulmonary TB chest diseases clinics, respectively. Bacteriological and nonbacteriological methods were used in the 58 (% 64.4) cases and 32 (% 35.6) cases of 90 cases as diagnosed at pulmonary TB Diyarbakir No. 1 TCD, respectively. It was found that the diagnosis of 15 (% 46.8) cases that diagnosed by nonbacteriological methods at TCD was determinated to be as false by chest diseases clinics that have different diagnosis possibility. It was determinated that the mean treatment time was 7.51 ± 2.90 month. It was found that the 56 (% 15.6) cases were made some errors according to treatmet regime or treatment time. The false rate was found to be high when used nonbacteriological methods at TCD. National TB programme is suggested that smear negative cases are sent to health centers having different diagnosis possibility. As a result of, our study is in agreement this suggestion.en_US
