摘要：

To determine compliance with nosocomial tuberculosis control measures, 541 healthcare worker observations were made for 52 patients placed in respiratory isolation. Sixty-four total violations were noted, of which 45% occurred in physicians in training. Overall compliance with tuberculosis control measures appeared to be good, but additional educational efforts are warranted (Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 1999;20:623-624).
