Transmission and Pathogenesis This is an archived document. Transmission and Pathogenesis

Transmission of M. tuberculosis Spread by droplet nuclei Expelled when person with infectious TB coughs, sneezes, speaks, or sings Close contacts at highest risk of becoming infected Transmission occurs from person with infectious TB disease (not latent TB infection)

Probability TB Will Be Transmitted Infectiousness of person with TB Environment in which exposure occurred Duration of exposure Virulence of the organism

Pathogenesis 10% of infected persons with normal immune systems develop TB at some point in life HIV strongest risk factor for development of TB if infected Risk of developing TB disease 7% to 10% each year Certain medical conditions increase risk that TB infection will progress to TB disease

Conditions That Increase the Risk of Progression to TB Disease HIV infection Substance abuse Recent infection Chest radiograph findings suggestive of previous TB Diabetes mellitus Silicosis Prolonged corticosteriod therapy Other immunosuppressive therapy

Conditions That Increase the Risk of Progression to TB Disease (cont.) Cancer of the head and neck Hematologic and reticuloendothelial diseases End-stage renal disease Intestinal bypass or gastrectomy Chronic malabsorption syndromes Low body weight (10% or more below the ideal)

Common Sites of TB Disease Lungs Pleura Central nervous system Lymphatic system Genitourinary systems Bones and joints Disseminated (miliary TB)

Drug-Resistant TB Drug-resistant TB transmitted same way as drug-susceptible TB Drug resistance is divided into two types: Primary resistance develops in persons initially infected with resistant organisms Secondary resistance (acquired resistance) develops during TB therapy

Classification System for TB Type Description No TB exposure Not infected No history of exposure Negative reaction to tuberculin skin test TB exposure No evidence of infection History of exposure Negative reaction to tuberculin skin test 1 TB infection No disease Positive reaction to tuberculin skin test Negative bacteriologic studies (if done) No clinical, bacteriological, or radiographic evidence of active TB 2 TB, clinically active M. tuberculosis cultured (if done) Clinical, bacteriological, or radiographic evidence of current disease 3 TB Not clinically active History of episode(s) of TB or Abnormal but stable radiographic findings Positive reaction to the tuberculin skin test Negative bacteriologic studies (if done) and No clinical or radiographic evidence of current disease 4 5 TB suspected Diagnosis pending
