The Tuberculosis Working Group of the Portuguese Society of Pulmonology, feeling the need to develop guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection, compiled a set of recommendations, in view to standardize procedures on this area. This document was prepared in collaboration with the Portuguese Societies of Internal Medicine, Pediatrics and Infectious Diseases, A review and update of guidelines for tracing and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection was made, concerning immunocompetent children and adults, as well as immunocompromised children and adults due to HIV infection. It is understood that these guidelines are to be used as general recommendations, and they should not replace the individual analysis of each case.
葡萄牙肺病学会结核病工作组意识到有必要制定潜伏性结核感染的诊断和治疗指南，鉴于此，汇编了一套建议，旨在规范该领域的程序。本文件是与葡萄牙内科、儿科和传染病学会合作编写的，对免疫功能正常的儿童和成人以及因感染艾滋病毒而免疫功能低下的儿童和成人的潜伏性结核感染追踪和治疗指南进行了审查和更新。应理解，这些指南仅作为一般建议使用，不应取代对每个病例的个体化分析。
