Treatment delay among tuberculosis patients in Tanzania
In this patient sample in Tanzania half of the new smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients had a treatment delay longer than 12 weeks. Delay was similar in men and women and among urban and rural patients, but longer in the young and older age groups. Patients using traditional healers had a 25% longer median delay
From Mosques to Classrooms
In response to the global challenge of inadequate case detection of tuberculosis (TB), the Fund for Innovative DOTS Expansion through Local Initiatives to Stop Tuberculosis (FIDELIS) was developed in 2003 to rapidly assess and implement innovative approaches to increase the detection of new smear-positive TB cases. As previously reported, a wide range of target populations and interventions has been incorporated into successful FIDELIS projects
Rusen and Enarson Respond
We appreciate Lauer and Birn’s interest in our article. However, many of the concerns they raise are speculative and are not consistent with the operational reality of FIDELIS. First, the authors question the local nature of the FIDELIS projects and suggest that FIDELIS is most accessible to organizations affiliated with developed countries. In fact, the projects approved to date are truly local in nature; internationally associated nongovernment…
Fidelis—Innovative Approaches to Increasing Global Case Detection of Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis was declared a global public health emergency in 1993. In 2003, only 45% of the world’s estimated new smear-positive tuberculosis cases were detected—well below the 70% global case detection target set by the World Health Organization. The FIDELIS (Fund for Innovative DOTS Expansion Through Local Initiatives to Stop TB) initiative is a new global disease control initiative that has been developed to rapidly assess and implement innov…
