WHO 2012 TB Report
MDR-TB burden
– DRS survey 2003-2005
• 1.6%
New
• 11.8%
Previously treated
– WHO estimate
• 2500 MDR TB Cases are expected from notified cases
annually
– DST requirement per annum:
• 6000 new and 6000 retreatment cases (2013)

National PMDT implementation plan
• Phase I: pilot phase (2009-11)
– Target: treat 45 patents
– Establish MDR treatment at one TB Hospital in 2009
• Scale Up phases: Five years expansion plan (2011-15):
– Target : treat 8,018 MDR-TB patients
– Phase II: Roll out phase using (2011-13)
• MDR TB referral centers
• Establishment of regional culture and DST centers
• Pilots Ambulatory model
– Phase III: Scale up phase(2013-15)
• Rapid diagnostic techniques
• Ambulatory centers up to Zonal hospitals level
Preparatory phase for initiation
• National technical working group on MDR-TB
established.
• Guidelines: PMDT; TB infection control
• Training material for health care workers
• Training of health care workers
• Renovation of MDR-TB wards
• Registration of second line anti-TB drugs conducted
• Procurement of SLDs
• Infection control items such N-95 respirators, were
made available
• Recording and reporting formats developed and
printed
• IEC materials including posters and stickers
developed and printed
Shifting the gear: Preparation for accelerated scale up
• Implementation protocol for ambulatory
care for DR-TB
• Customization of training material for
middle level
• Selection of TIC and TFC
•
– 1 TIC linked to 8-10 TFC
Update case finding and diagnostic approaches

Establishment of Sputum sample transport system
Efficient PSM for SLDs, ancillary drugs
Socio-economic support for patients
Renovations of TICs, TFCs
Improve Human capital and leadership

Major Challenges
• MDR TB Suspect identification and Sputum sample transportation
challenges
• GeneXpert rollout is very slow
• HR Capacity needs not met
• Poor Lab support for patient monitoring
• Ancillary drugs shortage - What, when, where
• Patient socioeconomic support system not standardized
• Infection control settings in most health facilities not satisfactory
• SLD Supply to TICs and TFCs not fully integrated to the national DSM
• Long turn around time for follow up Culture results
Targets for 2013 -2015 in PMDT
• To decentralize the MDRTB treatment service to PHC level by 2015:
• TIC at Zone level (40, 70, 96 zones in 2006, 7 and 8 respectively) and at
least one TFC at Woreda level (814 Woredas).
• DST screening for
– 10% of New PTB smear positives and
– 100% of previously treated TB
•
•
•
•
To enroll 100% notified confirmed MDR TB cases for treatment
To achieve 95% interim result of culture conversion
To achieve TSR rate of 80% and reduce the death rate from 15% to 10%
To improve cases finding in pediatric age group
– to reach 7% of all cases
• To provide integrated MDR TB and HIV service in all MDRTB service
points
