Abstract
Introduction: Low TB bacteriological Confirmation remains the bane to TB eradication in Tanzania including Ruvuma region. To tackle the challenge, Ruvuma region through the RHMT and Implementing Partners (MDH and Deloitte) introduced the use of the 6Qs-CTTRFM Modal to emphasize the use of the molecular diagnostic techniques (GeneXpert and TrueNat) to control the quality of the. for TB diagnosis cascade for the increase of the bacteriological confirmed TB cases in the region. Methods: The implementation of the modal started with the provision of training of the DOT nurse and CHWs on quality sample collection and storage, training of riders (Boda-boda) for quality sample transportation, training of laboratory staff for quality sample testing that TB diagnostic centers and conducting training of RHMTs, CHMTs, and Health managements on monitoring and evaluation of the trends of the bacteriological confirmation in their area Results: The trends of notification of TB cases and the bacteriological confirmed TB cases increased from 2065 in 2020 to 2394 in 2023. The increase in the sample collected caused the increase of the bacteriological confirmed cases from 491 in 2020 to 985 in 2023. Conclusion: The 6Qs-CTTRFM model plays a key role in increasing of the bacteriological confirmed cases in Ruvuma. The engagement of the IPs, RHMT, and CHMTs is important for maintaining the implementation of the modal.
