TB is primarily transmitted through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes, releasing Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria into the air, which can then be inhaled by others.

TB precautions in healthcare facilities include respiratory precautions, airborne precautions, personal protective equipment, engineering controls, administrative controls, education and training, environmental cleaning, and patient education.

Transport TB patients within the hospital using appropriate infection control measures, including respiratory precautions, such as N95 respirators, and personal protective equipment (PPE) like gloves, gowns, and eye protection, while adhering to airborne precautions.

Dehydration can lead to an increase in hematocrit and hemoglobin levels due to hemoconcentration, as the loss of fluid results in a higher concentration of red blood cells in the blood.

Parathyroid hormone deficiency, also known as hypoparathyroidism, is a condition characterized by insufficient production or secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) by the parathyroid glands. This hormone plays a crucial role in regulating calcium and phosphate levels in the blood. Hypoparathyroidism can lead to ****low levels of calcium in the blood (hypocalcemia) and high levels of phosphate,***** resulting in symptoms such as muscle cramps, spasms, tingling sensations, and potentially life-threatening complications if left untreated.
