摘要

FIELD: medicine; therapy; general medical practice; pulmonology; phthisiology.;SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of medicine, in particular to therapy, general medical practice, pulmonology, phthisiology; it can be used to predict an unfavorable outcome of tuberculosis (TB) treatment in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A smoking index of 10 or more packs/years, the severity of negative subjective assessment of the condition by patients on a visual analog scale (VAS) of 0-5 points and a CAT test of 10 or more points, the absence of passing lung fluorography for 3 or more years are determined in a patient. Points are assigned and the probability (Y) is calculated. If Y value is 89.9% or more, a high risk of an unfavorable outcome of TB treatment in patients with COPD is predicted. ;EFFECT: method provides a reliable forecast of the development of an unfavorable outcome of TB treatment in patients with COPD by evaluating the complex of the most significant signs.;1 cl, 1 dwg, 4 ex
