Comparative Study[Factors related to the tuberculous patient and the study of contacts].
While the maximum priority of the programs for tuberculosis prevention and control is the identification and treatment of all the people with active tuberculosis, the second priority is the evaluation of their contacts. The goal of this study has been to evaluate the factors of the tuberculous patients associated with the study of their contacts. ⋯ The global prevalence of tuberculous whose contacts are studied should be increased, especially among the patients with sociosanitary risk (HIV, PDU and alcoholism), and among the patients with higher probability of transmission.
