Abstract<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Tuberculosis is described as a global emergency and it is found more in developing countries. For this reason, a descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted among TB patients seen at District Hospital Enugu Ezike, Enugu State.<\/p>\n

The objectives of the study were: to assess the level of knowledge of the respondents about the cause of tuberculosis, to assess the level of knowledge of preventive practices on tuberculosis among the respondents and to assess the level of knowledge of community treatment facilities among the respondents.<\/p>\n

Methods:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

This was a study among 360 patients in District Hospital Enugu Ezike in Enugu state. Designed questionnaires were administered by trained interviewers to obtain information about their perception of cause, prevention and treatment for TB.<\/p>\n

Results:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

About 56.7% of the respondents were not aware of the cause of TB. 44.4%\u00a0 of the respondents got knowledge about TB through the health workers.<\/p>\n

Up to 83.3% of the patients could mention at least one sign or symptom of TB correctly. Also, 71.7% of the respondents stated that TB could be prevented by proper disposal of sputum while 68.9% were aware that sneezing and coughing without covering the nose and mouth enhance the spread of TB.<\/p>\n

Introduction<\/strong><\/h3>\n

1.1 Background of the Study<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tuberculosis is a common and often serious infection caused by\u00a0 mycobacterium tuberculosis1<\/sup>. It is mainly an infection\u00a0 that attacks the lungs\u00a0 but it can also affect the bones, spine, kidneys etc. It is spread through the air, when people who have an active infection cough, talk, sneeze or sing2<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

The majority of tuberculosis infections are asymptomatic and latent but one in ten latent cases do progress to active disease if it is left untreated. The case fatality of an untreated active tuberculosis disease exceeds 50%3<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

One third of the world\u2019s population is thought to be infected with tuberculosis and new infections occur at a rate of one per second. Throughout the world in 2007, there were an estimated 13.7 million chronic active cases of tuberculosis.<\/p>\n

In 2010, there were 8.8million new cases and 1.5 million estimated deaths mostly occurring in developing countries4,<\/sup> 5<\/sup>. 350,000 people who die of active tuberculosis are co-infected with HIV6<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Tuberculosis is the second most common cause of death from\u00a0 infectious disease after HIV7<\/sup>. Since 2005, the number of tuberculosis cases has been decreasing slowly especially in more advanced countries. The number of new cases has also decreased since 2008.7,<\/sup> 8<\/sup><\/p>\n
