The guide, based on nursing and drug-resistant TB literature, establishes best practice nursing assessment and intervention guidance. The content was created to act as a reference and job aid for nurses to:
1.Identify symptoms that may indicate a side effect related to DR-TB treatment or antiretroviral medication;
2.Assess for severity as well as other potential contributors; and
3.Intervene appropriately in order to minimize patient discomfort, reduce side effect progression, and ultimately support successful treatment completion.

This tool was developed to help health workers in the clinical and operational management of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. The tool emphasizes the introduction, implementation and management of the nine-month treatment regimen.

The World Health Organization (WHO), in partnership with the Global Fund and Stop TB Partnership, has launched the initiative “Find. Treat. All. #EndTB." The campaign site includes more information about the initiative, social media tiles, and other TB-related links.

The Stop TB Partnership has developed a set of campaign materials for World TB Day 2019.
