Abstract
On the day of June 30, 1966 Tuberculous patients were examined at 27 National Sanatoriums in Kyushu District. The total numbers of patients were 7014.
Among these patients, 2292 were bacillus-productive: 21.2% of them (483 patients) were resistant to one kind of antitubercle, 30.1% (704 patients) to two kinds of antitubercles and 27.8% (637 patients) to three kinds of antitubercles. These primary antitubercles resistant patients were 79.6% (1824 patients).
Out of these primary antitubercles resistant patients, moreover, 61.4% are resistant to SM, 49.4% to PAS and 5.0% to INH.
Much difference was observed among these results between each Sanatoriums.
