Labs • • • Hematocrit 40. 8 MCV 84 WBC 6. 0 Platelets 453 AST 22 Alk Phos 180 • • • Creat 0. 6 Serum Ca 9. 9 PCO 2 36. 9 O 2 sat 100 Sputum smear – x 3 pending
Chest Radiograph and CT • CXR suggestive of cavity lesion in LUL and RUL otherwise heart normal size. Diaphragm slightly elevated secondary to heightend uteral placement. Film suggestive of active process of pulmonary tuberculosis. • CT confirms cavity opacity in RUL
Differential Diagnosis • Tuberculosis • Bacterial Pneumonia • Carcinoma
Diagnosis • CXR abnormal but not necessarily diagnostic. • Sputum smears may be – or + depending on the level of infectiousness • May need bronchoscopy with bronchial washings or lavage • Biopsy may be warranted to confirm
Diagnosis - 2 • Culture is gold standard but takes 3 -6 weeks to grow in solid media, 12 -28 days with liquid media • Smear is strongly suggestive but could be due to nontuberculous mycobacteria • Nucleic acid amplification can rule TB in but not out • TB skin test not sensitive or specific • In-vitro interferon gamma-based tests similar to TB skin test
Case Presentation - 4 • Smears: 2+/1+/neg • HIV serology - negative
Treatment - Induction Phase Because of the relatively high proportion of adult patients with tuberculosis caused by organisms that are resistant to isoniazid, four drugs are used in the induction phase for the 6 -month regimen to be maximally effective. – – Isoniazid Ethambutol Rifampin Pyrazinamide 5 -10 mg/kg day 15 -20 mg/kg day 10 mg/kg day 20 -25 mg/kg/day
Case Presentation - 5 Our patient: Daily therapy with – Isoniazid – Ethambutol – Rifampin – Pyrazinamide 300 mg p. o. (1 pill) 800 mg p. o. (2 pills) 600 mg p. o. (2 pills) 1000 mg p. o. (2 pills) Other issues: intermittent regimens, combination pills
Management • • DOT- directly observed therapy Self- Administered therapy Case Management Mandatory Confinement?
Assessment of Transmission • • How long to isolate the patient? Source case? Transmission to household contacts? Transmission in the workplace?
Case Presentation - 6 Initial sputum culture results from our patient: “M. tuberculosis” Isoniazid Ethambutol Rifampin Pyrazinamide Sensitive
Treatment – Continuation Phase Because of the relatively small number of organisms remaining after 2 months of intensive phase treatment, most patients with tuberculosis can be placed on continuation phase treatment after 8 weeks of induction. Induction Phase usually lasts 4 months (18 weeks) and can be give daily or twice weekly – Isoniazid – Rifampin 5 -10 mg/kg day
Treatment Monitoring • Visit Schedule: q 2 wk during induction q month during continuation • Adherence monitoring • Efficacy monitoring Weight, temperature 2 month and 6 month films monthly smear and culture • Toxicity monitoring Skin rash, LFTs, Nausea, Color vision
Case Presentation - 7 Sputum culture results from our patient after 2 months of induction phase therapy: “No Growth”
Outcome • Patient received induction and continuation therapy (2+4=6 months) and was cured • All household members received TST and chest radiograph if TST+. There we no active cases, but the 2 persons with TST+ received INH for treatment of LTBI • Baby received INH until follow-up TST 3 months later was negative
