Description
Summary:Background : Tuberculosis, an infectious disease caused by M. tuberculosis, is global burden disease because of its prevalence among the world mainly in developing countries. Microscopic examination with ZN staining is the most common diagnostic tool for tuberculosis. However, its result often doubtful when the numbers of mycobacteria found is less than 10 AFB/100HPF as standard cut-off for diagnisis. This kind of result called scanty. Objective : This study aims to compare scanty result of microscopic AFB smears against cultures to determine the tendency of scanty result of AFB smears. Methods : This study used secondary data of Afb smears and culture result obtained from Tuberculosis Laboratory of Microbiology Departement, FK UGM. The data include patientâ's scanty result from January 201- October 2013. Result : A total of 95 scanty samples were available for this study. Of these, 27 (28,4%) were positive for culture and 68 (71,6%) were negative. Out of 95 samples, there were only 61 scanty samples could be graded as scanty positive and scanty negative. Of 46 scanty positive samples, 8 (17,39%) had positive result of culture and 38 (82,61%) had negative result. Out of 15 scanty negative samples, 1 (7,00%)had positive result of culture and 14 (93,00%) had negative result (p=0,309).
