Assessing the Utility of a Rapid Diagnostic Test for Tuberculosis in Resource-Limited Settings

Abstract

Fisher Matthew

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health challenge, particularly in resource-limited settings where timely and accurate diagnosis is often hindered. This article presents a comprehensive evaluation of the utility of a rapid diagnostic test for TB in such settings. By assessing its performance, impact, and feasibility, this study aims to provide valuable insights into the potential of this diagnostic tool to revolutionize TB management and control in resource-constrained environments. It is a contagious infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It primarily affects the lungs but can also affect other parts of the body, such as the kidneys, spine, and brain. TB is a global health concern and one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide.
