Abstract: TB is an infectious disease caused by infection with the bacteria Mycobacterium Tuberculosis which can attack the lungs.

Based on hospital data in 2024 in the last 3 months, there were 317 cases of pulmonary TB, with 176 cases of patients diagnosed with TB. Treatment can be effective if patients comply with the rules for using drugs prescribed by doctors and from the results of the analysis there is a significant relationship between compliance with taking medication and the rate of recovery of tuberculosis patients. This figure is the third largest case of the disease after type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension that occurred at Bhakti Asih Hospital.
