Objective

To investigate the knowledge and attitudes of tuberculosis (TB) control workers regarding preventive treatment for latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, providing evidence for promoting LTBI preventive treatment.

Methods

A cross-sectional survey was conducted among TB control workers from 14 prefectures in Xinjiang. Data were entered using EpiData 3.1 and analyzed with SPSS 26.0, with statistical significance set at P<0.05.

Results

Among 235 respondents,92.77% (218/235) knew about LTBI, 63.40% (149/235) understood the probability of LTBI progression, 73.62% (173/235) knew screening methods, 29.79% (70/235) recognized high-risk populations, 65.11% (153/235) knew target groups for preventive treatment, and 60.85% (143/235) understood treatment efficacy. Of those aware of LTBI, 71.56% (156/218) believed preventive treatment was necessary. Significant differences (P<0.05) were found in recommending preventive treatment by gender (χ2=4.565, P=0.033), occupation (χ2=10.839, P=0.004), knowledge of treatment efficacy (χ2=16.490, P<0.001), perceived necessity (χ2=122.919, P<0.001), and training experience (χ2=5.200, P=0.023). Main concerns included uncertain efficacy (39.57%), adverse reactions (32.34%), public knowledge gaps (15.32%), and implementation difficulties (12.77%).

Conclusion

TB control workers demonstrated limited knowledge and moderate acceptance of LTBI preventive treatment. Targeted training and education programs are needed to improve acceptance and implementation of preventive treatment among high-risk populations.
