Scaling-up tuberculosis preventive therapy to HIV-negative contacts of bacteriologically confirmed TB cases aged 5 years and above – Lessons from a tuberculosis preventive therapy surge activity in Za…
While tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT) coverage among people living with HIV in Zambia has improved, uptake among HIV-negative contacts aged ≥5 years remains low. Despite evidence showing that TPT can reduce TB incidence by up to 60% in HIV-negative individuals, there is a paucity of evidence on programmatic rollout to this population in Zambia and the region. We present programme data from a TPT surge aimed at increasing uptake among ≥5 yea…
Designing community-based strategies to reach non-household contacts of people with tuberculosis in Lusaka, Zambia
Background: In high-burden settings, most tuberculosis (TB) transmission likely occurs outside the home. Our qualitative study in Zambia explored the acceptability and preferences for designing TB active case finding (ACF) strategies to reach non-household contacts of people with TB. Methods: = 12) of community venue types identified as potential TB transmission locations. Interviews explored TB attitudes and beliefs, and perceptions toward two A…
Preferences for tongue swab-based versus sputum-based testing in the context of TB care
BACKGROUND: The development of non-sputum-based tests is an urgent priority to increase access to tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic testing. Understanding preferences of people undergoing testing is critical for designing tests and strategies aligned with their needs. METHODS: We conducted a survey and best-worst scaling (BWS) exercise to determine relative preferences for tongue swab-based versus sputum-based testing among people (≥13 years) with pre…
Evaluating InferVision’s Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) algorithm for Tuberculosis (TB) screening, Lusaka, Zambia
The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of InferRead DR Chest for tuberculosis (TB) screening in a high HIV and TB burden setting. The study assessed the performance of InferRead DR Chest using anonymized chest X-ray images from an active TB case finding study in Lusaka, Zambia, for individuals aged 15 and older. The Xpert MTB/RIF or MTB culture was the composite reference standard. Performance was evaluated using t…
The accuracy of point-of-care C-Reactive Protein as a screening test for tuberculosis in children
Systematic screening for TB in children, especially among those at high risk of TB, can promote early diagnosis and treatment of TB. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently recommended C-Reactive Protein as a TB screening tool in adults and adolescents living with HIV (PLHIV). Thus, we aimed to assess the performance of point-of-care (POC) CRP as a screening tool for TB in children. A cross-sectional study was conducted at 2 primary health c…
Engagement of private health care facilities in TB management in Lusaka district of Zambia
Engagement and inclusion of private health facilities in TB service provision through a systems strengthening approach can increase contribution to TB notification by private health facilities
A mixed methods study on men’s and women’s tuberculosis care journeys in Lusaka, Zambia—Implications for gender-tailored tuberculosis health promotion and case finding strategies
Men and women with undiagnosed tuberculosis (TB) in high burden countries may have differential factors influencing their healthcare seeking behaviors and access to TB services, which can result in delayed diagnoses and increase TB-related morbidity and mortality. A convergent, parallel, mixed-methods study design was used to explore and evaluate TB care engagement among adults (≥18 years) with newly diagnosed, microbiologically-confirmed TB atte…
User perspectives and preferences on a novel TB LAM diagnostic (Fujifilm Silvamp TB LAM)–a qualitative study in Malawi and Zambia
Widely available tuberculosis (TB) diagnostics use sputum samples. However, many patients, particularly children and patients living with HIV (PLHIV), struggle to provide sputum. Urine diagnostics are a promising approach to circumvent this challenge while delivering reliable and timely diagnosis. This qualitative study in two high TB/HIV burden countries assesses values and preferences of end-users, along with potential barriers for the implemen…
Implementation of isoniazid preventive therapy in people living with HIV in Zambia
Zambia has both a high burden of TB and HIV and without preventing new cases of TB from reactivation of latent TB infection, it will be difficult to control TB. All stakeholders involved in prevention of TB among PLHIV need to commit to addressing the challenges limiting scale up of IPT
