Introduction Tuberculosis is one of the most prevalent infection of human being Contributes considerably to illness and death around the world Tuberculosis is the world’s second most common cause of death from infectious disease after HIV / AIDS This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA
Definition Tuberculosis is a contagious infection that primarily affects the lungs and others body parts such as kidney, spine or brain. Tuberculosis usually spreads through the air when an infected person cough , sneeze or talks. Tuberculosis remains in the region with poor healthcare infrastructure , overcrowded area and due to limited medical resources. This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY
Origin The pathogen which is responsible for causing tuberculosis is the mycobacterium tuberculosis. The exact origin of this bacterium is not definitively known.

Classification of Tuberculosis Tuberculosis is classified into two parts :- Pulmonary TB:- ~primary disease ~secondary disease Extra pulmonary TB:- ~lymph node TB ~pleural TB ~pericardial TB ~gastrointestinal TB ~miliary TB

Diagnosis :- Bacteriological test ~ auramine stain{fluorescence microscopy} Sputum culture test ~{LIQUID MEDIUM : 8-14 days} Radiography ~{ chest X- rays} Nucleic acid amplification Tuberculin skin test~{injection of fluid into the skin of the lower arm} This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA
Mantoux Test/ Mendel-Mantoux test. The Mantoux test or PPD test is a tool for screening for tuberculosis and for tuberculosis diagnosis. It is one of the major tuberculin skin tests used around the world ,largely replacing multiple – puncture tests such as the tine test . The Mantoux skin test consists of an intradermal injection of one –tenth of a milliliter of PPD tuberculin . The circular shape is known as a wheal response. The test is “positive” if there is a pump of a certain size where the fluid was injected. This means the body probably have TB germs. Most people with a positive TB skin test have latent TB infection. This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA-NC This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-ND
Epidemiology of Tuberculosis TB infection is one of the most common infections in the world. It is estimated that nearly 2 billion people { about one fourth of the world’s population } are infected with M . tuberculosis. Every year , about 10 million people develop TB disease and 1.6 million people die from it. In fact , TB disease is the leading cause of death due to infectious disease in the world.

Risk factors:- Close contact with some one who have active TB. Immuno compromised status. Drug abuse and alcoholism. People lacking adequate health care. Immigrants from countries with higher incidence of TB. Occupation [ health care workers] This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-NC-ND
Incubation period Two to ten weeks after the initial infection. The risk of disease after infection is highest in first 2 years. The bacteria can be carried in the body for many years. Most infected people never develop active disease. This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY
