Las cepas del bacilo tuberculoso con farmacorresistencia (TB-DR) son más difíciles de tratar que las
farmacosensibles y amenazan el progreso mundial hacia los objetivos establecidos por la Estrategia Fin de
la TB, de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS). Por lo tanto, existe una necesidad imperio...
This document provides a summary of the evidence and recommendations for the use of SL-LPA for the detection of mutations associated with resistance to fluoroquinolones and SLID in patients with RR-TB and/or MDR-TB. The objectives of this policy guidance are to assess and compare the diagnostic accuracy ...

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a large-scale public health problem. Key global priorities for TB care and control include improving case-detection and detecting cases earlier, including cases of smear-negative disease. This document updates existing WHO policy on the use of molecular LPAs for detecting MTBC a...
WHO has developed guidelines on systematic screening for active tuberculosis (TB) based on a thorough review of available evidence. Early detection of TB is essential to further improve health outcomes for people with TB, and to reduce TB transmission more effectively. Systematic screening in high risk g...
The global priorities for tuberculosis (TB) care and control are to improve case-detection and to detect cases earlier, including cases of smear-negative disease which are often associated with coinfection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and young age, and to enhance the capacity to diagnose ...
