Abstract: Objective To observe the effects of short course chemotherapy adding supersonic aerosol combinant for newly diagnosed smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods 63 patients were randomly divided into two groups:Control group 33 cases were treated with short course chemotherapy only;Treatment group 30 cases were treated with short course chemotheray adding supersonic aerosol combinant.Results The smear positive time of treatment group was 16.67±10.28(day),the time of coutrol group was 37.5±15.41(day),the difference was statistically significant (t′=6.37,P＜0.001),the side effect for the treatment group was not apt to increase.Conclusion Shortcourse chemotherapy adding supersonic aerosol combinant was useful for pulmonary tuberculosis,and the mothods,can be used widely in clinic.
