概要: To obtain the baseline value of tuberculin reaction, two-step tuberculin skin testing was carried out in 307 employees o … ut of 376 in our hospital with 100beds sanatorium for tuberculosis. As manners of dividing those healthcare workers to three groups, very high-risk group, risk group and others by the frequency of possible exposure to tuberculosis patients and/or their examination samples, the reaction of very high risk group is relatively higher than other two groups. However, overall positive rate is very high compared with general population. This result urged us more conscious about infection prevention of tuberculosis in our hospital. In this symposium, I would like to show more detail about the skin testing data, and discuss about the roles of tuberculin skin testing and BCG vaccination on health care workers, those are very controversial issues, especially in our country, there BCG policy is quite differed from other countries. In this point of view, we rather emphasized the more importance on infection controls manners such as using high－performance face-mask, isolation of patients with multi-drug resistant tuberculosis and periodic health checking of employees more closely and carefully such as double checking of X-ray films and so on. 続きを見る
