BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) represents a growing public health concern in Germany, particularly among children and adolescents with a migration or refugee background. Complex diagnostics and structural barriers to accessing healthcare necessitate migration-sensitive measures.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis examined data from 31,480 children and adolescents (0-17 years) with a migration or refugee background, collected in Munich between 2015 and 2024 as part of the mandatory TB screening.
RESULTS: The number of screenings fluctuated significantly, peaking in 2015 (41%) during the Syrian crisis and reaching a low in 2020 (3%) during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 190 active TB cases were diagnosed. To address existing healthcare gaps, the 'Pediatric Migrant & Public Health Center Munich (PMPH Munich)' was developed as a cross-sectoral, interdisciplinary care model that closely links clinical facilities and public health services.
CONCLUSION: PMPH integrates clinical and public health expertise, offering child-friendly diagnostics, psychosocial support, and culturally sensitive care. The aim is to enable early TB detection and treatment in vulnerable populations. An evaluation of the model's effectiveness is currently underway to assess its impact and scalability.
