Screening
4. Monitoring and evaluation
In this section, we consider the monitoring and evaluation required to support the implementation of TB screening programmes. The operational handbook contains more details about the monitoring, surveillance and evaluation of TB screening interventions (7).
1.3 Objectives of the operational handbook
This document provides practical guidance on translating WHO’s recommendations for screening into a national or local strategy with clear objectives, prioritization of risk groups and definition of the most appropriate screening approaches.
The specific objectives are:
A.3.11 – mWRD single screening algorithm for people living with HIV
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
A.3.10 – mWRD single screening algorithm for medical inpatients in settings with TB prevalence > 10%
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
A.3.9 – Sequential negative screening algorithm with W4SS and CXR
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
A.3.8 – Sequential positive screening algorithm with W4SS and CXR
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
A.3.7 – Parallel screening algorithm with W4SS and CXR
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
A.3.6 – Sequential negative screening algorithm with W4SS and CRP
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
A.3.5 – Sequential positive screening algorithm with W4SS and CRP
* In this population, diagnostic testing for TB with LF-LAM and other methods is usually considered early on. See WHO consolidated guidelines on tuberculosis, Module 3: Diagnosis – Rapid diagnostics for tuberculosis detection (12)
