Today is not medical workers, and directly parents decide whether to make such a child to their child. More and more parents want to know what Mantu is and what kind of goals is made.

The most important thing is that it is worth understanding, Mantu is not an ads. Mantu is a sample using which you can reveal the child's presence of tuberculosis infection. The essence of the sample is to be introduced under the skin of a child a special medical preparation - tuberculin, after which it is established by the observation of the body's reaction on this injection. If there is severe redness at the injection site or a tumor begins to form - this means only one thing: the child has a pathogenic bacterium in the body. This test is made in order to minimize the number of children in the risk area of \u200b\u200btuberculosis and preventing the development of this disease. Employees of medical institutions are recommended to make such a sample every year, despite the results of past tests.

The first time the test is carried out in children who have reached one year, and the first vaccination from the tuberculosis stick is made to a child in the hospital. Re-vaccination is carried out when the child reaches the six and fourteen years. Depending on the reaction to the sample, vaccination can be recommended at the other age.

The result of the sample is monitored by a seal that appeared at the injection site after seventy two hours after entering the drug. This seal is sometimes called "button". If the size of the button is less than one millimeter or it is generally absent - this is a negative reaction, the child's body is clean. If the seal dimensions do not reach four millimeters - a child has a dubious reaction. Button sizes 5-16 millimeters indicates a positive reaction. If its size exceeds 17 millimeters - a pronounced reaction takes place. Whatever the body's reaction, this does not indicate a hundred percent availability in a child of infection. For the unequivocal establishment of this fact, more serious tests and tests are required.

Mantu does not make children with skin diseases, chronic or infectious diseases, as well as astmatics. At the same time, there are several requirements to obtain the most accurate data that parents and the child themselves:
the injection site is not categorically allowed to water water;
it is impossible to handle the place of injection with green, iodine or hydrogen peroxide;
it is impossible to comb "bug";
the injection site cannot be closed with a tight bandage or sticking with a plaster.

The test of manta allows you to identify the disease on its earliest stage, when there are no forms of external manifestation of the disease. Returning to the topic of choice, to make this injection of a child or not, there is no only right answer, but doctors recommend that you have a trial of children if your child communicated with a person with a tuberculosis, if the reaction to the vaccine is constantly increasing or if it was in the territory where tuberculosis Widely distributed among the population.
The test of manta is just one way to protect your loved ones from diseases. By virtue of its specifics, it does not affect the immunity and leaves the traces in the body of the child. But the decisive voice in the question "make manta or not", of course, belongs to you.
