Introduction:
This document lists TB indicators that can be derived from the recording and reporting tools defined
in Definitions and reporting framework for tuberculosis – 2013 revision (WHO/HTM/TB/2013.2).
Geneva, World Health Organization; 2013. (http://www.who.int/t...b/publications/definitions/en/).

While many of the countries hit by the COVID-19 in the first few months of the year are now beginning to relax lockdown measures as infection and death rates fall, in the regions most affected by HIV, TB and malaria, such as Africa, South Asia and Latin America, the pandemic continues to accelerate.... In lower resource settings, lockdowns are less effective and hard to sustain, and clinical care facilities are extremely limited. In such environments, the response to COVID-19 must focus on containing the pandemic’s spread as far as possible through testing, contact tracing and isolation, protecting the health workforce through training and the provision of personal protective equipment (PPE) and minimizing the knock-on impact on other diseases through shoring up fragile health systems, and adapting existing disease programs.

Social protection, a component of the World Health Organization (WHO)’s End TB strategy, has been upheld by Member States as an essential part of the response to tuberculosis in several political declarations, including the 2017 Moscow Declaration to End TB, and both the political declarations of ...both the 2018 and 2023 United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) high-level meetings on the fight against TB. Furthermore, during the 2023 high-level meeting, member states agreed on a new target to ensure that all people with TB have access to a comprehensive package of health and social benefits by 2027.

The Compendium of data and evidence-related tools for use in TB planning and programming was developed as a companion document to the People-centred framework for tuberculosis programme planning and prioritization – user guide, published by the World Health Organization (WHO)... in 2019. The compendium is intended to support implementation of the people-centred framework user guide. It can also be used independently to inform decisions taken by national tuberculosis (TB) programmes about the implementation of the tools included in this document.

The WHO document "Integrating the prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases in HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and sexual and reproductive health programmes: implementation guidance" provides a framework for integrating noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) into existing health programs for HIV/AIDS, tub...erculosis (TB), and sexual and reproductive health (SRH). It emphasizes the importance of a people-centered approach to enhance healthcare accessibility and efficiency, especially in low-resource settings. The document outlines strategies for strengthening policy, financing, capacity building, and health system infrastructure. It offers actionable steps, tools, and case studies to support countries in reducing the burden of NCDs through integrated, holistic care within primary health services.

In 2019, the Global Fund’s 6th Replenishment raised more than $USD14 billion to fight HIV, Tuberculosis and Malaria. Just two years later, the world has changed significantly. Put simply: COVID-19 devastated prevention and treatment programs. For the first time since the Global Fund’s founding, ...in 2020 the world lost ground in the fight against HIV, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
The Global Fund moved quickly to support countries to respond to COVID-19 and its impact on the three diseases, repurposing and leveraging additional funding to support urgent needs and adapt programs. Despite those efforts, the need for action to resume progress in the fight against HIV, TB and malaria has never been greater.
The world faces a choice.

The WHO Global strategy on human resources for health: workforce 2030 encourages development partners and global health initiatives to leverage their support to health systems in countries to sustainably strengthen the health workforce. To assess the impact of these investments, a methodology was de...veloped and pilot tested by WHO.
The impact assessment tool (consisting of an MS Excel calculator with two subsets) supports users to:
• assess and quantify the health impact of HRH investments made in the context of HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria programmes through their modelled effect on health service coverage of these three diseases; and
• provide aggregate indicative estimates of the range of health workers required to attain high coverage of selected health services.

Las personas infectadas por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH) tienen
29 veces más probabilidades de enfermar de tuberculosis (TB) que las personas
sin VIH que viven en el mismo país. La TB es una de las principales causas de muerte entre las personas infectadas por el VIH: provoca ...la quinta parte de las muertes de personas con VIH en todo el mundo. En 2013, una de cada cuatro muertes por TB en todo el mundo estuvo relacionada con el VIH. Desde 2004, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) recomienda el conjunto de intervenciones denominadas «actividades de colaboración TB/VIH». Se han realizado avances significativos en la aplicación a nivel mundial de este conjunto de intervenciones, que permitieron salvar aproximadamente 1,3 millones de vidas entre 2005 y 2011.

В данном документе описываются шаги, необходимые для точного измерения интервала QT (QTc) при мониторинге электрокардиографии (ЭКГ) пациентов, получающих краткосроч...ый режим лечения лекарственно-устойчивого туберкулеза (ЛУ-ТБ) или режим, включающий в схему новые препараты. Кроме того, в данном руководстве представлены требования, которые должны быть учтены при приобретении аппарата ЭКГ для мониторинга безопасности лечения пациентов. В силу того, что каждая модель аппарата имеет особые характеристики расчета QTcF (указанные в описании модели), соответственно, это должно быть учтено при выборе и закупе той или иной модели аппарата.

В цьому документі описуються кроки, необхідні для вимірювання скоригованого інтервалу QT (QTc) при моніторингу електрокардіограми (ЕКГ) у пацієнтів, які або перебува...ть на короткостроковій схемі лікування, або використовують нові препарати для лікування туберкульозу з лікарською стійкістю (ХР ТБ). Крім того, наводяться настанови щодо вимог, які слід враховувати при закупівлі апаратів ЕКГ для моніторингу пацієнтів. До тих пір, поки автоматичний розрахунок інтервалу QT з коригуванням Фредеріція (QTcF) (як зазначено в документі) залежить від функціоналу прибору, вибір щодо закупівлі конкретного апарату залишатиметься на розсуд країн.
