Direct Observation (DO) for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis: Do We Really DO?
Journal
PloS OneAbstract
Directly-observed therapy (DOT) is recommended for drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) patients during their entire treatment duration. However, there is limited published evidence on implementation of direct observation (DO) in the field. This study aims to detail whether DO was followed with DR-TB patients in a Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) tuberculosis program in Mumbai, India.PubMed ID
