- W2463273629 abstract "SUMMARYGuidelines available for the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in children vary widely. In an area of high prevalence, pulmonary TB was often suspected but difficult to confirm. In a prospective study, diagnostic methods were recorded in 144 consecutive children admitted and diagnosed as having pulmonary TB. Six of the 144 children had bacteriologically confirmed tuberculosis. Seventy-five children had probable tuberculosis, the diagnosis being based on the tuberculin response in 19, a history of family contact in 34 and a diagnostic chest radiograph in 22. The remaining 63 children had suspected tuberculosis: 23 of these had an inconclusive chest X-ray. The suspected group were significantly younger than the probable group (mean ages 2·8 and 4·4 years respectively), experienced a longer delay between admission and the start of anti-tuberculous chemotherapy and suffered a significantly higher mortality (30% and 8% respectively). A diagnostic process is proposed which takes account of the high proportion of non-responders to tuberculin in a young, malnourished population. A trial of anti-tuberculous therapy is accepted as a valid diagnostic manoeuvre in suspected cases who are malnourished or have recently had measles." @default.
