[Prevention and control of tuberculosis in the hospital setting: the new operative protocol of the polyclinic "Umberto I"]. / Prevenzione e Controllo della Tubercolosi nelle strutture ospedaliere: il nuovo Protocollo Operativo dell'Azienda Policlinico "Umberto I".

ABSTRACT

The aim of this contribution is to explain a recent tubercolosis "prevention and control" program in health care workers. The same program was implemented in an university hospital since 2007, and revised in 2011 as a result of a new Mycobacterium tubercolosis exposure assessment in the different works environment.
