What is Causes of Tuberculosis Deaths in Kerala about?
A study conducted in Alappuzha District, Kerala, India, found that 60% of tuberculosis (TB) deaths were due to diseases other than TB, highlighting the importance of addressing co-morbidities in TB management. Out of 90 deaths among registered patients in 2015, only 29 were attributed solely to TB, while others had conditions like myocardial infarction and cancer. The findings suggest that strategies for preventing TB-related deaths should include early diagnosis and management of co-morbidities.
