Abstract

Objective To understand the characteristics, trend and influencing factors of the consultation delay in Huzhou City from 2008 to 2018, so as to provide evidence for tuberculosis (TB) prevention and control. Methods From the Tuberculosis Management Information System (TMIS), we collected the data of the TB consultation delay from 2008 to 2018 in Huzhou City. χ² test was used for single factor analysis, χ² trend test was used for time trend test of rate and composition ratio, multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of the delay. Results From 2008 to 2018 in Huzhou City, the consultation delay rate of TB patients was 52.9%, and the overall trend was decreasing year by year (χ²_trend=149.581, P < 0.001), different gender and age groups also showed the same trend. The delayed patients were mainly male, over 60 years old, but the proportion of female was increasing (χ²_trend=10.320, P < 0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression model showed that women, elderly, local residents, follow-up, see a doctor due to symptoms, sputum positive and newly diagnosed TB patients were associated with a higher risk of consultation delay (all P < 0.05). Conclusions From 2008 to 2018, the majority of TB consultation patients in Huzhou City were males, over 60 years old but the proportion of females showed an upward trend. The delay rate showed a downward trend. Gender, age, registered residence, source of patients, sputum examination results and treatment classification were the factors influencing the consultation delay.
