The aim of the study is to improve the detection of tuberculosis infection and dispensary surveillance of children who have been in contact with patients with tuberculosis. Research methods: clinical-radiological, laboratory, statistical. It was found that the incidence of children in contact with a patient with (MDR+) in 2022 was 336 times higher than in the general population. It was established that 62.0% of the surveyed children were from unknown contacts, 81.3% were in contact with a (MDR+) patient. Children from contacts are more likely to have infiltrative pulmonary TB (24.1%) and children from unidentified contacts - bronchial TB (36.7%). Only in the group of contacts with XDR-TB patients the generalised forms of TB are detected, common clinical forms of TB (52.2%), MDR-TB (58.4%). In 63.7% of children with (MDR+), the results of resistance to anti-TB drugs are the same as those of the contact person, most often to rifampicin - 75.6%. A technology for managing children in contact with a TB patient regardless of bacterial excretion has been developed, which facilitates early detection of TB infection and reduces the risk of localized TB in children. A method for predicting the risk of developing localised TB in children in contact with a TB patient, which allows to increase the accuracy of prediction by 22.4% and to identify the contingents that need to be monitored by a paediatric phthisiologist to prevent the development of localised TB, and the technology for managing a child from contact with a TB patient without microbiologically confirmed bacterial excretion, which allows to increase the effectiveness of preventive treatment of a child by 17.2 % and prevent the spread of TB infection. were developed. Sphere of application – tuberculosis, paediatrics. Product Description popup.authors Bilohortseva Olha I. Dotsenko Yaroslava I.
