[Strictly supervised antitubercular chemotherapy in district and plant medical dispensaries in the city of Craiova].

The mode of administration of chemotherapy is evaluated, in conditions of integration, and under strict supervision, in tuberculosis patients in 12 medical dispensaries and in 6 enterprise dispensaries from Craiova over a period of one year. A total of 88,54 +/- 17,99 per cent of the number of programmed doses was administered in the territorial medical dispensary, as compared with 81,9 +/- 21,3 per cent in the tuberculosis dispensary. In enterprise dispensaries 97,69 +/- 16,17 per cent of the doses was given effectively, as compared with 78,17 +/- 29,39 per cent of doses given to the same patients in the tuberculosis dispensary. During the sick-leave 92,14 +/- 9,19 per cent of the doses were given, in the medical territorial dispensary as against 86,98 +/- 17,58 per cent in the tuberculosis dispensary. The difference is not significant. After reinsertion 77,53 +/- 24,84 per cent of the programmed doses were administered in the tuberculosis dispensary, 88,2 +/- 19,84 per cent in the territorial medical dispensary and 97,12 +/- 5,66 per cent in the enterprise dispensary. The differences were not significant. The authors conclude that administration of anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy can be perfectly well carried out in integrated conditions in the urban environment, especially in interprise medical units, after reinsertion. The phtysiologist should make a periodical survey in these units in view of securing a strict administration of the treatment regimens.
