Abstract:
By a questionnaire 88 chest physicians were asked anonymously for their opinion about 15 cases of tuberculosis with various problems (choice of chemotherapeutic regimens, duration of treatment, rehabilitation and other aspects) in regard to first or repeated treatment and in chronic tuberculosis. It can be demonstrated, that in the overwhelming number the evaluation of the cases is done with safety and that the recommendations of the advisory board for chest diseases and tuberculosis are noticed.
