derminant infection Seroprophylaxis ( immunoglobulin )
Chemoprophlaxis: INH for High risk contacts :1/when tuberculin + Hyperimmune serum is available.
2/when tuberculin – and giving BCG but recently converters Given to high-risk contacts post exposure as
pregnant and young adult .2 It may be given to cases
especially adults

Contacts: enlistment + clinical investigation Contacts: enlistment
control
surveillance to maximum IP +tuberculin +xray + sputum analysis:: خايف منه high عشان اتجنب فترة الsegregation for 9d : خايف منه
specific : high risk contacts chemoprophlaxis : خايف عليه infectivity
If tuberculin - /Give BCG or combined with INH if recently converts … If tuberculin + specific : خايف عليه
/Give INH protection by serooprophylaxis to high risk contact (
Case Finding /Most imp measure 1/ risk group as contacts,occupational no imp )
workers,chronic dis.. Community control
2/dangerous g:food handlers,teachers,baby sitter مصيبة لو اتعدوا
NB / tuberculin then xray then sputum examination”most cost-effective”
