The study sample included all household contacts of TB cases identified from 2010 to 2014 (<jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a03,008). The data set was chosen when nurses were the primary case managers at chest centers in the department of health.

Those not tested, not fully evaluated, and refusing LTBI treatment were most often aged 18\u201344\u00a0years and were non\u2010US born. Males were significantly more likely than females not to be fully evaluated. Among racial\/ethnic groups, Asian and Hispanic persons were at higher risk of not being fully evaluated, and residents of Queens had the highest risk among the five boroughs. In multivariate analyses, age was a significant predictor of behavior, such that the older the person the less likely to get TB testing or to accept LTBI treatment. Non\u2010US country of birth was associated with lower likelihood of being fully evaluated but more likely to accept LTBI treatment when fully evaluated, while Asian or Hispanic race\/ethnicity was associated with higher likelihood of both behaviors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Findings on age from this study will enable public health agencies and public health nurses to plan for effective strategies that will increase the number of household contacts who accept TB testing and evaluation, as well as the numbers who will accept and complete LTBI treatment.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/phn.12788","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,15]],"date-time":"2020-08-15T04:38:57Z","timestamp":1597466337000},"page":"705-714","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Factors associated with household contacts\u2019 tuberculosis testing and evaluation"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"37","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3601-6162","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elvy G.","family":"Barroso","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene New York NY USA"},{"name":"City University of New York The Graduate Center New York New York NY USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1101\/cshperspect.a017889"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.17-0096"},{"volume-title":"Clinical policies and protocols","year":"2008","author":"Bureau of Tuberculosis Control.
