Improving the Diagnostic of Tuberculosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The presence of M. tuberculosis in non-invasive throat swabs of patients withdrawn for suspected tuberculosis.
Hypothesis 10% of patients infected by M. tuberculosis are carrier of M. tuberculosis pharyngeal.
Secondary
-
Measure the time to diagnosis of pulmonary TB by comparing the sample versus noninvasive pharyngeal samples taken routinely.
-
Evaluation of the direct cost of the diagnosis of M. tuberculosis by comparing the sample versus noninvasive pharyngeal samples taken routinely.
-
Beijing genotype prevalence among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of patients with microbiological diagnosis of M. tuberculosis infection [3 years]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- pulmonary tuberculosis diagnostic time. [3years]
