Management of tuberculosis in childhood.

Statistical evidence documents an overall decrease in incidence of tuberculous infections with continued decline in mortality. Although the number of deaths has decreased in children under 15 years of age, in the city of Los Angeles, the figures suggest a possible increase in total cases during the past two years. Data on 530 cases observed at Los Angeles Children's Hospital from 1934 to 1955 were reviewed with respect to age, race, and mortality under changing methods of management.Available antimicrobial agents are discussed with suggestions for criteria for treatment and for specific treatment schedules.
