Mortality rate of blood-borne pulmonary tuberculosis

In the past, tuberculosis could be said to be an incurable disease, but with the development of modern medical technology, many medical technologies that can cure tuberculosis have gradually been applied to clinical medicine. There are many types of pulmonary tuberculosis, and each type of pulmonary tuberculosis has different treatments. Hematogenous pulmonary tuberculosis is a type of pulmonary tuberculosis that is transmitted through the blood. If a person is infected with blood-borne tuberculosis, how high is the mortality rate?

Although there are many types of pulmonary tuberculosis, if it can be diagnosed in time and given symptomatic treatment, most of them can be clinically cured. So what are the types of pulmonary tuberculosis? The main types of pulmonary tuberculosis are primary pulmonary tuberculosis (type I), including primary syndrome and intrathoracic lymph node tuberculosis; blood-type disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis (type II), including acute blood-type disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis and subacute and chronic blood-type disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis; secondary pulmonary tuberculosis (type III) can have a variety of pathological changes such as proliferation, infiltration, caseous lesions or cavities; tuberculous pleurisy (type IV) clinically excludes pleurisy caused by other reasons; other extrapulmonary tuberculosis (type V) are named according to the location and organs. Let's take a closer look at the symptoms of improvement of blood-disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis.

If the chest CT scan shows that the condition is under control, it means that the patient has improved. Since anti-tuberculosis drugs have a significant impact on the liver and kidneys, regular liver function tests are required in the outpatient clinic.

1. Dietary considerations for hematogenous disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis

The diet should be nutritious, high in protein and vitamins, and you should eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins. Foods rich in protein include: animal foods, such as chicken, duck, goose meat, lean pork, beef and mutton, etc.; plant foods, such as flour, bean foods and soy products. They must be cooked thoroughly before eating. Avoid eating raw and difficult to digest foods, which are not conducive to human absorption. Avoid spicy food. Try to eat less or no seafood, because anti-tuberculosis drugs have the side effect of increasing blood uric acid, and seafood will aggravate the increase in blood uric acid, and allergies are prone to occur during anti-tuberculosis treatment; those who have smoking and drinking habits should resolutely quit; for patients with drug-induced liver disease due to the side effects of anti-tuberculosis drugs, they should be instructed to avoid eating high-calorie foods, such as fried foods, chocolate, etc., to prevent liver fatty degeneration and hinder the repair of liver cells.

2. Nursing of hematogenously disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis

Patients and their families should learn how to deal with sputum and simple and easy disinfection and isolation measures, develop the habit of not spitting anywhere, and patients should try not to go to public places. The patient's daily life should be regular and he or she should take a full rest for at least 3-6 months depending on the condition of the patient. After the condition stabilizes, work can be arranged appropriately. Strengthen nutrition, regulate immunity, and avoid catching cold. Get 8-10 hours of sleep every day. Family members should urge patients to take medicine on time.

The above is an introduction to the symptoms of improvement of hematogenous pulmonary tuberculosis. I think everyone is clear about it. Once infected with this type of pulmonary tuberculosis, you must seek timely treatment and use symptomatic medication. Do not take medication privately to avoid aggravating the condition.
