Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is still a serious health problem in the world. TB in children is an important indicator of transmission. Tuberculosis in children occurs at the age of 0-14 years. Indonesia has a high burden of TB disease, especially in Banten Province. The global prevalence of TB in 2021 increased by around 600,000 cases compared to 2022 of 10.6 million cases. The purpose of this study is to know, analyze and help solve problems faced by patients. The methods in this report are used to confirm the diagnosis of RO TB based on the Mtb susceptibility test using phenotypic and genotypic TCM and LPA methods. Diagnosis of tuberculosis in suspected TB is carried out by TCM examination. Based on the plotting results, there is a girl with the initials S who is diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis and is short in stature, so it is necessary to intervene through a family medicine approach. After intervening holistically and comprehensively, An's complaint. S is showing improvement and is currently still undergoing treatment. The source of TB transmission in An is known to S is thought to come from the patient's grandfather. TB infection experienced by patients has an impact on inhibiting patient growth so that the patient's height and weight do not increase. After thorough treatment and education, the patient's family understands TB disease, transmission, and prevention. It is hoped that treatment can be carried out completely and can achieve age-appropriate growth.
