table_text: TB treatment protocols for all treatment service indicators are expected to be available at all diagnostic and treatment sites. However, most facilities that offer TB services did not have them on the day of the survey. Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of susceptible TB were present, on average, in 61 percent of health facilities offering TB services. Guidelines for management of HIV-TB co-infection were available in about half of facilities, while only 15 percent had guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of MDR-TB. In all cases, hospitals and health centres were more likely to have guidelines than other types of facilities. By managing authority, private-for-profit facilities were least likely to have guidelines.
target: TB treatment protocols for all treatment service indicators are expected to be available at all diagnostic and treatment sites.
