Resumen

ESPINOSA ALVAREZ, René F.; MASSON LOPEZ, Ana del Carmen  y  GIL GARAY, Ilsa Bárbara. Comportamiento del Programa Nacional de Tuberculosis pulmonar, en un municipio. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 1998, vol.14, n.5, pp. 418-421. ISSN 1561-3038.

It is known that pulmonary tuberculosis is a serious health problem in most of the countries. In our country, there is a tuberculosis control program whose knowledge and objectives are of vital importance for the family physician. The behavior of the national program to control pulmonary tuberculosis was analyzed at "Lawton" Teaching Polyclinic from 1995 to 1997. To this end the sputa ordered from 1-1-95 to 31-12-97 by the family physicians from the 49 physicians’ offices existing in this unit were reviewed. Data were given by the Statistics Department and by the Clinical Laboratory controlling this activity. The results show that there are still some difficulties to control this disease that may be solved through a greater dedication to this activity on the part of the family physicians as direct responsible of their different health areas, and of the health authorities having to do with this problem
