Abstract
Se hizo un estudio de casos y controles en 70 trabajadores de salud con diagnóstico de tuberculosis pulmonar (TBP) y 70 trabajadores sin antecedentes de esta enfermedad que laboraban en el mismo centro hospitalario durante el periodo 1995-2000. El objetivo del estudio fue demostrar la asociación entre los factores de riesgo ocupacionales y la TBP en estos trabajadores de salud de este centro hospitalario. De acuerdo al diseño, cada uno de los trabajadores fue entrevistado, se revisaron sus historias clínicas así como las bases de datos del Programa de Control de Tuberculosis, del área de Remuneraciones y del Servicio de Salud Ocupacional del HNGAI. El análisis multivariado demostró que el factor de riesgo significativo fue no usar respirador N95 (p=0.007, OR=7.9) y menor edad (p=0.017,0R=1.1).
