The incidence of tuberculosis has decreased over the last 2 years on the national territory (6.4/100,000 inhabitants) but remains twice as high in Ile de France where it is increasing with an increase of almost 10% in the number of cases. reported between 2015 and 2017 . the notification rate of tuberculosis disease for the year 2020 was 14.3 cases per 100,000 inhabitants (i.e. 1757 cases declared) which is more than double that found at the national level . As the disease is multifocal, patients are likely to be hospitalized in different departments with variable care and compliance support offered. One of the major issues is compliance with treatment. Indeed, INVS data (2008-2014) report a percentage of treatment completed in pulmonary tuberculosis of 73% . Among these cases, 20% had a potentially unfavorable outcome, including 45% lost to follow-up, which creates a risk of relapse and contagiousness for those around them. The latest data reported in 2022 over the period 2014-2018 seem to show an increase in treatment completeness but completeness remains variable from one region to another and from one year to another Using Public Health France data, the investigator were able to collect the proportion of completeness of treatment at Saint Antoine hospital, which is 60% over the period 2014-2016 (Public Health France, unpublished data).
