IntradermalMantoux testAdult: Standard doses may differ among individual products or between countries as the units are not equivalent (refer to local specific product guidelines). As preparation containing 5 Tuberculin Units (TU)/0.1 mL: 5 TU (0.1 mL) to be injected slowly on the volar aspect of the forearm. As preparation containing 2 TU/0.1 mL: 2 TU (0.1 mL) for 1 dose, slowly administered into the middle third of the forearm (palm-up). Correct intradermal inj forms a small round wheal (approx 6-10 mm in diameter), which will remain visible for approx 10 minutes. The result will be read after 48-72 hours of administration. Measure the palpable induration only; redness is not considered in interpreting the test. Refer to detailed product guideline for the interpretation of tuberculin reaction.
Child: As preparation containing 5 TU/0.1 mL: ≥6 months Same as adult dose.

Hypersensitivity to tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD). Previous severe reaction (e.g. anaphylactic shock, vesiculation, necrosis, ulceration) to tuberculin PPD skin test (TST); documented active TB or clear history of TB infection or disease treatment, extensive burns or eczema.
|
Patient with bacterial (e.g. typhoid fever, pertussis), fungal (e.g. South American blastomycosis) or viral (e.g. influenza, measles, HIV) infections; chronic renal failure, severe protein depletion, afibrinogenaemia and other conditions that impair immune response; diseases affecting lymphoid organs (e.g. Hodgkin's disease, lymphoma, chronic leukaemia, sarcoidosis), malignancy, altered or attenuated cell-mediated immunity (CMI). Malnourished patients and those under stressful conditions (e.g. surgery, burns, mental illness, graft-versus-host reactions). Pregnancy and lactation.
|
Significant: Vesiculation, ulceration or necrosis at inj site (particularly in highly sensitive patients); syncope.
General disorders and administration site conditions: Fever, inj site reactions (e.g. pain, pruritus, discomfort, erythema, urticaria, rash (without induration), oedema, haematoma, haemorrhage; scarring [for strongly positive reactions]).
Nervous system disorders: Presyncope, headache.
Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders: Dyspnoea, stridor.
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: Generalised rash.
Potentially Fatal: Rarely, allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis/anaphylactoid reactions and angioedema.
|
Intradermal/Parenteral: C
|
Monitor for immediate hypersensitivity reactions (approx 15 minutes following inj).
|
Reactivity to the test may be diminished or suppressed by concomitant corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents, or following recent immunisation with certain live virus vaccines (e.g. measles, mumps, rubella, oral polio, yellow fever, varicella).
|
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) is a PPD preparation obtained from the culture of selected strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is used as a skin test to aid in the diagnosis of TB in individuals suspected of having clinical tuberculosis or in those at high risk for developing active TB disease.
Synonym: tuberculin PPD.
Onset: Delayed hypersensitivity reactions: 5-6 hours.
Duration: Reactions will subside over a few days.

Store between 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Protect from light.
