The total number of people infected with tuberculosis in Timor-Leste is 508, this number of cases leads Timor-Leste to be the second country with high cases in Southeast Asia. Based on the pre-elimination data at the Klibur Domin Tibar Clinic Liquica, the tuberculosis-positive patients are 160 male patients, 127 female patients.
Research Objectives: To know the level of knowledge of pulmonary tuberculosis patients about transmission and prevention in the Klibur Domin Tibar Clinical Clinic Liquica.
Research Methodology: We used a quantitative descriptive method, using the Probability Sampling technique with a simple random sampling approach and the univariate data analysis technique.
Results Discussion: the knowledge of the 52 respondents based on the knowledge of the disease pulmonary tuberculosis shows that most of this frequency is with knowledge less with 28 frequencies [53%], adequate with frequency 16 [31%], less frequently 8 [16%]. Distribution is based on the level of knowledge about the prevention of pulmonary TB disease of the total of 52 respondents, the majority of respondents with knowledge category less frequently presents 32 [62%], knowing adequate frequently 14 [27%], knowing good frequently 6 [11%], of with the research result.
