Objective. To analyze general epidemiological trends of tuberculosis (TB) in the Far Eastern Federal District (FEFD) over 2009–2018.
Materials and methods. TB indicators in the FEFD subjects were studied on the basis of the analytical reviews of the Federal Center for Tuberculosis Spread Monitoring, Central Research Institute of Health Care Organization and Informatization.
Results. Epidemiological change rates were calculated for nine FEFD subjects. Eight of them showed a decline in TB incidence, prevalence, and mortality. The most substantial improvement in the TB epidemic situation was noted in the Magadan Region. The Chukotka Autonomous Okrug displayed a rapid increase in the epidemiological indicators characterizing the TB situation, causing the Autonomous Okrug to hold the last ranking position in the Russian Federation and a leading position in the anti-ranking of the FEFD subjects. There was an increase in the number of multidrug-resistant TB patients and in the proportion of TB/HIV ones in all FEFD subjects.
Conclusion. Despite the fact that the TB epidemic situation has stabilized with a tendency to improve in both the FEFD and Russia as a whole, the situation is still challenging in the FEFD.
Keywords: Far Eastern Federal District, tuberculosis, prevalence, incidence, mortality
