Keywords:
HIV, important cause, tuberculosis patientAbstract
HIV is the most important cause of death amoung tuberculosis patient. About 25 % of all causes of death. HIV promote progression of latent TB infection, which become difficult to diagnose initially later on comorbidity and mortality leads to late diagnosis and death of patients. The current study was from Jan 2018 to Dec 2021, and a retrospective study design was conducted. Many TB patients were found to be hidden HIV infection so active screening is needed, for active case finding. Proper recording should be design, data including phone number should be collected for proper follow-up.
