Contribution of Mobile TB Clinic Fitted with Digital X-ray, CAD and Xpert MTB/RIF/Ultra on same day TB diagnosis and treatment initiation in Uganda.
REFNo: HS3797ES
General Objective
The goal of the study is to assess the usefulness of portable X-ray, CAD and GeneXpert fitted on Mobile TB clinic in enhancing TB detection and initiation of treatment among high risk patients in Uganda.
Specific Objectives
1. To determine the uptake of “enhanced” mobile TB clinic services using targeted active case finding outreaches/activities among the high-risk communities in Uganda.
2. To determine the operational feasibility and cost effectiveness of mobile TB clinics to conducting same day TB screening, diagnosis and treatment initiation.
3. To evaluate the diagnostic performance of CAD4TB using Xpert MTB/Rif ultra as the reference standard.
