Abstract:

The emergence of drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis (TB) is a global threat to TB prevention and control efforts. A recent study conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease found strains of TB resistant to first-line anti-TB drugs in all countries surveyed (1). The WHO estimates that 50 million people are infected with strains of drug-resistant TB (2).

Abstract:

Abstract Tanzania's national tuberculosis control program, created in 1977, is credited with having been the main inspiration for the World Health Organization's Directly Observed Treatment, Short-Course (DOTS) strategy for the control of tuberculosis, which was implemented from 1994. The text focuses on what previously took place in Tanzanian tuberculosis control between 1977 and the early 1990s. What was it that the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, which was central in the effort, assisted in creating? In what sense was the program innovative? How could a country whose health system was destroyed by a deepening economic crisis in the 1980s become a lighthouse of tuberculosis control? How much consideration was given to the rise of HIV/AIDS that occurred in parallel? The paper proposes answers to these questions, and suggests that we should see the creation of the Tanzanian program as a laboratory of nascent global health.

Abstract:

Introduction. In 2003, the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (IUATLD) reported that tuberculosis is increasing globally more than ever in the history of mankind. Thus, tuberculosis is one of the major health problems of the twenty-first century. Implementation of DOTS strategy. Directly Observed Therapy Short-Course (DOTS) is the WHO's strategy for tuberculosis control. All HBCs (High-burden Countries) have a strategic plan for DOTS expansion for the next five years. The DOTS strategy is included in the country?s basic package of health-care services. With the introduction of the DOTS strategy in late 1990s, the surveillance was improved, although the 2003 estimate of 53% DOTS coverage is probably optimistic. The role of the Brezovik Hospital in the National TB Program. The Special Hospital for lung diseases Brezovik is the main regional hospital for tuberculosis treatment in Montenegro, and the place where the DOTS strategy is being implemented. Conclusion. The Special Hospital for lung diseases Brezovik plays a very important role in education of health care professionals. .

Abstract:

SETTING: The global multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) epidemic has grown over the past decade and continues to be difficult to manage. In response, new drugs and treatment regimens have been recommended.OBJECTIVE: In 2017 and again in 2018, the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (The Union) drug-resistant (DR) TB Working Group collaborated with RESIST-TB to implement an internet survey to members of The Union around the world to assess access to these new treatment strategies.DESIGN: A nine-question survey was developed using SurveyMonkey®. The survey was open for participation to all members of The Union registered under the TB Section. Two reminders were sent during each survey. The responses were analyzed taking into account the WHO Region to which the respondent belonged.RESULTS: The 2018 survey showed a global increase in implementation of the shorter (9-month) MDR-TB regimen (from 33% to 56% of respondents, P < 0.001) and an increase in the use of bedaquiline and/or delamanid (from 25% to 41% of respondents, P < 0.001) compared to 2017. There were substantial variations in roll-out between WHO regions.CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate improvement in global implementation of the new treatment strategies over a 1-year period.
