Objectives This is a protocol for Cochrane Review (qualitative). The objectives are as follows: To synthesize end?user and professional user perspectives experiences with low?complexity nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) detection of tuberculosis drug resistance. Review question What the people providing receiving NAATs to diagnose resistance? Answering this question will allow us identify implications effective implementation health equity.

A STUDY OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS DRUG RESISTANCE IN PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS
Tuberculosis remains a major public health problem in both developing and developed countries. Drug-resistant tuberculosis is an increasing health problem and serious challenge to tuberculosis (TB) control programs. Information about the susceptibility pattern of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates against anti-tuberculosis drugs is an important aspect to TB control. The objectives of the s...
متن کاملMolecular tests for rapid detection of rifampicin and isoniazid resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
2. Molecular testing based on katG and rpoB enabled rapid detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistance in 46.8% and 87.5% of patients infected with isoniazidand rifampicinresistant strains, respectively. The same number of patients infected with resistant strains with mutations in katG and rpoB were detected using the MTBDRplus line probe assay. The combined use of katG and inhA regulator...
متن کاملRifampin drug resistance tests for tuberculosis: challenging the gold standard.
The rapid diagnosis of rifampin resistance is hampered by a reported insufficient specificity of molecular techniques for detection of rpoB mutations. Our objective for this study was to document the prevalence and prognostic value of rpoB mutations with unclear phenotypic resistance. The study design entailed sequencing directly from sputum of first failure or relapse patients without phenotyp...
متن کاملRapid molecular detection of tuberculosis and rifampin resistance.
BACKGROUND Global control of tuberculosis is hampered by slow, insensitive diagnostic methods, particularly for the detection of drug-resistant forms and in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. Early detection is essential to reduce the death rate and interrupt transmission, but the complexity and infrastructure needs of sensitive methods limit their accessibility and effect. ...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Rapid Molecular Drug-Susceptibility Test for Tuberculosis.
BACKGROUND Fluoroquinolones and second-line injectable drugs are the backbone of treatment regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, and resistance to these drugs defines extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis. We assessed the accuracy of an automated, cartridge-based molecular assay for the detection, directly from sputum specimens, of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with resistance to fluoro...
