Physical examination is an important means of early active detection of tuberculosis patients.
The guidelines require that schools at all levels and types should carry out tuberculosis-related examinations in freshmen's physical examinations and routine physical examinations of faculty and staff, and incorporate the results of physical examinations into the health records of students and faculty. In principle, it should be completed before the students enter school, and at the latest, it should be completed within 1 month after the start of school.
The contents of physical examination mainly include the close contact history of pulmonary tuberculosis patients and the inquiry of suspicious symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis, TST (tuberculin skin test) detection and chest X-ray examination.
The Guide stipulates that if there are 10 or more cases of pulmonary tuberculosis or death cases with epidemiological relevance in the same semester, the health administrative department of the county (district) where the school is located should judge whether it constitutes a public health emergency according to the results of on-site investigation and public health risk assessment.
