Andre opplysninger

This course is intended as an introduction to multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) management, and is aimed at medical practitioners involved in the detection, management and treatment of MDR-TB patients. The Course aims to facilitate self-study by medical practitioners of contemporary, evidence-based standards for diagnosis and clinical management of MDR-TB in a variety of geographical, economic and social settings. The course does not include everything you need to know to manage MDR-TB, but serves a good base for understanding the issues.

Programmatic management of drug-resistant TB (PMDT) is now regarded as an essential component of the international approach to TB care, with many countries scaling up these activities. Treatment of drug-resistant TB, including MDR-TB, is complex, expensive, and requires considerable expertise and resources.

The course presupposes essential knowledge of TB transmission, pathogenesis, and the Stop TB Strategy for TB control. In order to control drug-resistant TB worldwide, WHO and its partners recommend the treatment of MDR-TB as a priority in expanded DOTS programmes using The STOP TB Strategy. In order to support countries to meet their commitments, WHO published Guidelines for the programmatic management of drug-resistant tuberculosis 2011 update based on the best evidence and practice currently available. This course is based on WHO guidelines, however, MDR-TB treatment is a programmatic activity, and treatment of patients should preferably be conducted under guidance of National TB Control Programmes and should follow national guidelines.

As research and experience with MDR-TB progress we do expect that WHO will update its guidelines. We do our best to incorporate changes into the course, however please visit the WHO web page to check for the latest versions of the guidelines.
