AB  - Tuberculosis is an infectious disease. Preventive efforts are needed, so that, the members of a family
who live under one roof (high risk family members) of tuberculosis patients are not easily infected by the
disease. Family is involved only as a drug consumption controller. So far, there has been no effort to maintain
and improve the health of high risk family members. The objective of this study was to elaborate the effect of
nursing therapeutic communication on perception, cortisol and HSP70 of pulmonary tuberculosis high risk
family members. A pre-experimental study was conducted using one group pre-test and post-test design.
Samples obtained were 20 respondents using random sampling. The independent variable in this study was
therapeutic communication (dimension of knowledge on transmission prevention and spiritual) while the
dependent variable were perception (knowledge and spiritual dimensions), cortisol and HSP70. Data were
collected using questionnaire and observation sheet and were tested using paired t-test. After the therapeutic
communication, there was an improvement in perception (p = 0.000), cortisol reduction (p = 0.0005) and
increase of HSP70 (p = 0.004). There was significant difference in perception, cortisol level and HSP70 level
before and after therapeutic communication. Therapeutic communication was able to improve the respondent’s
perception and the immunity of tuberculosis high risk family members. Recommendations to prevent TB
transmission in Public Health Center of Wonokromo were; Undergoing therapeutic communication (knowledge
