Incidence of Relapses Among Patients Treated with Antibiotics and Chemotherapy

CARLOS ZURITA M.D., F.C.C.P.

Two groups of 1,000 patients each are presented. One group is from a dispensary and the other from private practice.

Each 1,000 is subdivided into the first 500 in each group treated in the early antituberculosis drug era and the second 500 in each group after drugs became readily available.

Among the 2,000 reactivations occurred in 186 and new lesions evolved in 60, making a total of 246.

Treatment was considered adequate when antituberculosis drugs had been administered at least six months.
