Why study TB meningitis?545 adults with TBMConservative estimate: 100,000 cases each year
![Page 5: CNS tuberculosis: an update · TB meningitis. Arnold Rich. 1893-1968. Bull John Hopkins Hosp. 1933;52:5 -37. Bacteraemia ↑Inflammation. DEATH (25%) ↑bacteria](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051408/600df25b3db82f7d15511e6c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
TBM is a medical emergency
Treatment before the onset of coma is the greatest benefit a physician
can give a patient with TBM

The problem: rapid diagnosisClinical algorithms CSF ZN stain, microscopy, culture

Is a ZN stain/culture of the CSF useful?
