dc.description.abstractKazakhstan is in top 18 countries with the highest TB burden in European region [2, 9]. The tuberculosis burden for Kazakhstan is very high, annual years of healthy life lost per 100,000 people from tuberculosis in Kazakhstan has increased by 19.8% since 1990, an average of 0.9% a year. This research investigated factors associated with treatment outcome failure. The following factors has been examined: age, sex, residence, socio-economic status, year of admission, length of stay in the hospital, drug resistance, medical organization, hospital admission type. It has been found that following factors are associated with increased TB treatment outcome failure: being male by 17%; drug resistance by 206%; being emergency admitted to the hospital by 47%. Factors that are associated with decreased treatment outcome failure: being treated in Ust-Kamenogorsk TB center by 34%; being employed (as compared to being unemployed) by 36%; being student (as compared to being unemployed) by 65%; one additional day of stay by 1%. However, it should be admitted that obtained factors’ association are generalizable for East-Kazakhstan region only due to study design limitations.en_US
