Table XVIII. Form T 145 (G) of the Ministry of Health summarises
the immediate results of treatment of patients discharged
from institutions during the year. From this table it is seen that
among the Pulmonary cases 30.1% were classified as early cases,
the percentage of early cases receiving treatment in institution
was in women, 15.0% ; in men, 12.8% ; 38.0% of the total cases
were intermediate cases, the males showing an excess in this
group—21.7% males to 16.2% females—and 31.8% were definitely
advanced. Of the total Pulmonary cases treated in Institutions
72.6% were potentially infectious.
99 males, 74 females and 6 children, suffering from Pulmonaary
Tuberculosis, were discharged from or died in Institutions in connection
with the Croydon Scheme during 1936.
