Use of Accelerated Methods of Detection of Multi-Drug Resistant Extrapulmonry Tuberculosis

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate modern diagnostic methods in identifying extrapulmonary forms of tuberculosis (EPT) with drug resistance. Methods: To examine the time limits and identification of circumstances and diagnostics in EPT considered TB-06 registration forms for 2017, № 003/U (case history) of the 56 primary diagnosed patients registered for 2017-2018 in the National Center for Phthisiology. Results: The incidence of EPT in Kyrgyzstan in 2017 was 23.9 per 100 thousand of the population. According to TB-06 forms, extrapulmonary tuberculosis is only 1650 cases. 862 sowings were carried out, of which 503 were negative (58%). Positive results of sowings were 359 (42%). In 333 cases, a drug sensitivity test was performed: resistant forms were 192 (57.6%) and sensitive – 141 (42.4%) cases. Conclusion: From modern methods noted the high use of BactecMGIT and molecular genetic methods of research, which shortens the diagnosis time and promotes to the timely start of the treatment process.
