Description
Summary:The objective of the study: to assess the efficiency of valve bronchial block as a part of the comprehensive treatment of destructive pulmonary tuberculosis with concurrent HIV infectionSubjects and methods. Two groups of patients with concurrent destructive pulmonary tuberculosis and HIV infection were formed, both groups were compatible regarding clinical and X-ray data. The main group included 68 patients who agreed to have valve bronchial block. The comparison group included 57 patients who refused to have valve bronchial block.Results of the study. When managing HIV patients with destructive pulmonary tuberculosis, valve bronchial block increases the chances of sputum conversion (OR = 4.13; 95% CI 3.50-4.75) and healing of cavities (OR = 3.89; 95% CI 3.30-4.48). Valve bronchial block is indicated to tuberculosis patients with concurrent HIV infection even if the immunity is severely suppressed.
