ABSTRACT
A prospective study was conducted on 72 patients of pulmonary
tuberculosis (TB) and 201 healthy controls in a third level
hospital. The HRQoL questionnaire (12-Item Short Form
Health Survey, SF-12) was used to assess the QoL at the onset
of treatment DOTS. Patients with TB had significantly
lower mean scores than controls for overall QoL (51.1 ±SD
22.6) versus 75.9 (±SD 17.6), p ‹ 0.0001. The most affected
domains were physical and psychological. Active TB patients
shown difficulties in activities of daily living and alterations of
the psychological state.
