    Area of Science:

    • Public Health
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Epidemiology

    Background:

    • Tuberculosis (TB) incidence had been declining in the US prior to 1990.
    • A 6% increase in reported TB cases was observed in the United States in 1990.
    • The rise in TB cases is significantly associated with the ongoing Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) epidemic.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the importance of TB in the context of HIV-related illnesses.
    • To inform healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, about the unique aspects of HIV-associated TB.
    • To emphasize that TB is both preventable and treatable.

    Main Methods:

    • This study focuses on the epidemiological trends and clinical characteristics of tuberculosis.
    • It examines the distinct presentation of TB in patients with HIV co-infection compared to the general population.

  • Information on diagnosis, treatment, and potential side effects is reviewed.

    • Main Results:

    • HIV-associated tuberculosis presents differently from standard TB.
    • Nurses require specific knowledge regarding the clinical manifestations of this co-infection.
    • Effective diagnosis and treatment strategies are essential.

    Conclusions:

    • The resurgence of TB in 1990, driven by the HIV epidemic, necessitates increased awareness.
    • Healthcare providers must be educated on the nuances of HIV-associated TB.
    • Prompt diagnosis and appropriate management are key to controlling this preventable and treatable disease.
