This book provides a basis for the diagnosis and management of tuberculosis. It is presented in a question-and-answer format, with subject matter grouped under the three headings: Case Detection, Treatment, and Monitoring.

Aimed at provincial or district level staff responsible for training health facility staff who detect and treat cases of tuberculosis (TB), this guide explains options for using the course "Management of Tuberculosis: Training for Health Facility Staff." This guide is for the staff who will implement training at the provincial or district level, according to directives from the national level.

This compendium report provides a detailed review of monitoring and evaluation (M&E) for national TB programs and indicators for measuring DOTS implementation and expansion. The review includes information on M&E for TB control programs, sources of data, and effective use of M&E data for program improvement and advocacy.

This book was developed to assist in the management of TB and HIV/AIDS programs that are implementing or planning to implement collaborative TB/HIV activities. It is intended to facilitate the collection of standardized data and help in the interpretation and dissemination of these data for program improvement. It aims to ensure consistency across all agencies and stakeholders involved in HIV/AIDS, TB, and collaborative TB/HIV activities.

This booklet explains the relationship between MDR-TB, DOTS, and DOTS-Plus and how projects can become a DOTS-Plus pilot project that can benefit from concessionary prices negotiated for second-line anti-TB drugs by the Working Group.

This training course uses a variety of methods of instruction to help health workers develop specific skills necessary to diagnose persons with TB and manage treatment for their patients.

The overall goal of the training course is to further develop the skills required to plan and implement collaborative TB/HIV activities based on the strategies for controlling TB and HIV/AIDS recommended by WHO.
Includes a manual for participants, a guide for facilitators, and a guide for the course director.
