RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To determine the treatment success rate among TB patients and associated factors in Anambra and Oyo, the two states with the largest burden of tuberculosis in Nigeria. METHODS: A health facility record review for 2016 was conducted in the two states (Anambra and Oyo). A checklist was used to extract relevant information from the records kept in each of the selected DOTS facilities to determine TB treatment success rates. Treatment success rate was defined as the proportion of new smear-positive TB cases registered under DOTS in a given year that successfully completed treatment, whether with bacteriologic evidence of success ('cured') or without ('treatment completed'). Treatment success rate was classified into good (≥85%) and poor (<85%) success rates using the 85% national target for TB treatment outcome. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and chi-square at P < 0.05. RESULTS: There were 1281 TB treatment enrollees in 2016 in Anambra and 3809 in Oyo (total = 4835). An overall treatment success rate of 75.8% was achieved (Anambra-57.5%; Oyo-82.0%). The percentage cure rates were 61.5% for Anambra and 85.2% for Oyo. Overall, only 28.6% of the facilities in both states (Anambra-0.0%; Oyo-60.0%) had a good treatment success rate. More facilities in Anambra (100.0%) than Oyo (40.0%) had a poor treatment success rate (p < 0.001), as did more private/FBO (100.0%) than public health facilities (60.0%) (p = 0.009). All tertiary facilities had a poor treatment success rate followed by 87.5% of secondary health facilities and 56.5% of primary healthcare facilities (P = 0.035). CONCLUSION: Treatment success and cure rates in Anambra state were below the 85.0% of the recommended target set by the WHO. Geographical location, and level/tier and type of facility were factors associated with this. Interventions are recommended to address these problems.


OBJECTIF: Déterminer le taux de succès du traitement chez les patients TB et les facteurs associés à Anambra et Oyo, les deux Etats avec la plus grande charge de TB au Nigéria. MÉTHODES: Un examen des dossiers des établissements de santé pour 2016 a été réalisé dans les deux Etats (Anambra et Oyo). Une liste de contrôle a été utilisée pour extraire les informations pertinentes des registres conservés dans chacun des établissements DOTS sélectionnés afin de déterminer les taux de succès du traitement antituberculeux. Le taux de succès du traitement a été défini comme la proportion de nouveaux cas de TB à frottis positif enregistrés dans le cadre du DOTS au cours d'une année donnée qui ont terminé le traitement avec succès, que ce soit avec des preuves bactériologiques de succès («guéri¼) ou sans («traitement terminé¼) . Le taux de succès du traitement a été classé en bons (≥ 85%) et mauvais (<85%) taux de réussite en utilisant l'objectif national de 85% pour l'issue du traitement de la TB. Les données ont été analysées à l'aide de statistiques descriptives et du Chi carré à p <0,05. RÉSULTATS: Il y avait 1.281 personnes inscrites au traitement antituberculeux en 2016 à Anambra et 3.809 à Oyo (total = 4835). Un taux de succès global du traitement de 75,8% a été atteint (Anambra, 57,5%; Oyo, 82,0%). Les taux de guérison en pourcentage étaient de 61,5% pour Anambra et de 85,2% pour Oyo. Dans l'ensemble, seuls 28,6% des établissements des deux Etats (Anambra, 0,0%; Oyo, 60,0%) avaient un bon taux de réussite du traitement. Plus d'établissements à Anambra (100,0%) qu'à Oyo (40,0%) avaient un faible taux de réussite du traitement (p <0,001), tout comme plus d'établissements de santé privés/FBO (100,0%) que publics (60,0%) (p = 0,009). Tous les établissements tertiaires avaient un faible taux de réussite du traitement, suivis de 87,5% des établissements de santé secondaires et 56,5% des établissements de soins de santé primaires (p = 0,035). CONCLUSION: Le succès du traitement et les taux de guérison dans l'Etat d'Anambra étaient inférieurs aux 85,0% de l'objectif recommandé fixé par l'OMS. L'emplacement géographique, le niveau et le type d'établissement étaient des facteurs associés à cela. Des interventions sont recommandées pour résoudre ces problèmes.

RESUMO

Tuberculosis (TB) constitutes a significant and major public health emergency globally. Nigeria is one of the 22 high burden Tuberculosis countries. A high level of community awareness and positive perception towards TB and its management is crucial for the success of any control strategy. A national baseline survey was conducted in 2008 and a follow-up study in 2012 to measure knowledge of TB among the general population. This study therefore evaluated the knowledge of the target population about Tuberculosis in the follow-up study. A cross-sectional study design was employed with a total of 3,021 respondents interviewed from six states selected randomly from each of the six geopolitical zones in the country. Quantitative and qualitative research methodologies were adopted. From the findings, about 60% of the respondents were aged between 21 and 40 years and more than half had secondary school education. Over 80% had ever heard about TB. Although there has been a significant improvement in correct knowledge of the cause of TB from baseline (19%) in 2008 to 26.5% in 2012 (p < 0.001), findings showed that prioritized interventions are needed to improve communication and information dissemination on Tuberculosis to the general public, to aid TB control and all prevention efforts.
