THE STATUS OF A CONTINGENT OF PATIENTS WITH TUBERCULOSIS CONCURENT WITH HIV INFECTION IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION, INTERSECTORAL AND INTERDEPARTMENTAL INTERACTION IN ORGANIZING ANTITUBERCULOSIS CARE TO HIV-INFECTED PATIENTS

Abstract

Multivariate analysis was made to analyze a contingent of patients with tuberculosis concurrent with HIV infection in the Russian Federation over 7 years, by applying recording form No. 263-y/TB “Tuberculosis/HIV Patient Card”. The tuberculosis/HIV patients were shown to be the most difficult contingent among both the patients with tuberculosis and those with HIV infection.Based on the characteristics of the contingent of co-infected patients, the authors propose additional recommendations to activate and improve approaches to preventing tuberculosis in HIV-infected patients. Among other activities, work is done in penitentiary and narcological facilities where there are commonly HIV-infected patients who are at high risk for tuberculosis and those who are unregistered in the AID center.
