背景本研究描述了一项关于拉丁裔青少年INH依从性的研究中遇到的有效和及时LTBI治疗的障碍。方法参与者的研究日志进行了审查，继续医学教育预测试的医疗提供者的结果进行了检查，并参与医疗设施进行了联系，以构建一个多层次的障碍LTBI治疗的配置文件。结果共有285 TST阳性拉丁裔（96%）高中生被招募到试验。我们发现公众和保健提供者对结核病感染的严重性缺乏了解。家长和青少年将相互竞争的优先事项、交通问题和财政限制列为不遵守的原因。讨论改善公众和医生的教育是必要的，关于疾病的严重性和治疗的价值，以及政府和医学界对LTBI治疗的公共和财政支持。
Background This study describes the barriers to effective and timely LTBI treatment encountered in a research study on INH adherence in Latino adolescents. Method Participant study logs were reviewed, results of continuing medical education pretests for medical providers were examined, and participating medical facilities were contacted in order to construct a profile of multi-level barriers to LTBI treatment. Results A total of 285 TST positive Latino (96%) high school students were recruited into the trial. We encountered a lack of understanding of the gravity of tuberculosis infection among both the public and providers of health care. Parents and adolescents cited competing priorities, transportation problems and financial constraints as reasons for non-compliance. Discussion Improved education of the public and physicians is needed regarding the gravity of the disease and the value of treatment, as well as public and financial support for LTBI treatment by both the government and the medical community.
