chaining as one ofthe strategies to providefacility ti the health teom, wos to obtain an

We of tuberculosis patients, the condition of patient, result of evaluation and action
of evaluation, and suggested recommendation. The form of thts representatian
comprised premise and conclusion. The result of the simulation showed that the
