Abstract(s)
Ao longo dos Ășltimos tempos, a Mycobacterium tuberculosis tem sido alvo de estudos mais aprofundados, visto ser um dos agentes infeciosos que mais pessoas infeta em todo mundo, quer sob a forma ativa, quer sob a forma latente. Assim sendo, tĂȘm sido desenvolvidas vĂĄrias estratĂ©gias para o seu controlo e tratamento, que se mostram bastante promissoras. Atualmente existe ainda uma preocupação especial relativamente ao aparecimento de resistĂȘncias ao bacilo de Kock. Desta forma, sĂŁo importantes algumas medidas que promovam a diminuição destes casos de resistĂȘncia, nomeadamente o supervisionamento por um profissional de saĂșde, como garantia que o tratamento medicamentoso Ă© feito de forma completa e correta. Apesar de tudo, os Ășltimos desenvolvimentos no controlo e tratamento da tuberculose apresentam algumas falhas, desde a falta de eficĂĄcia atĂ© ao aparecimento de efeitos adversos indesejados, o que alarga ainda mais o perĂodo que leva atĂ© que um novo tratamento e/ou vacina possam ser inseridos no sistema de saĂșde. Este trabalho tem como objetivo a revisĂŁo do estado atual dos desenvolvimentos em torno do tratamento e controlo da tuberculose nomeadamente da forma resistente, assim como o seu atual impacto na sociedade.
Over the recent years, Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been the subject of extra study, since it is one of the infectious agents that infect more people around the world, either in his active or latent form. Therefore, several strategies have been developed for control and treatment, which appear quite promising. It has also been given special importance to the development of resistance by the Koch bacillus, and, to diminish these cases, efforts have been made, more particularly at the supervising level by a health professional to ensure that the pharmacological treatment is carried out complete and correctly. Though, those recent developments in the area of controlling and treating tuberculosis have some flaws, like the lack of efficacy and the appearance of adverse effects, which delays the time it takes until the new treatment or vaccine is inserted in the health system. This work aims to present the state of the art regarding the treatment and control of tuberculosis namely the resistant tuberculosis, as well as its current impact in the society.
