Description
Summary:The paper compares the results of treatment in patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis who were treated within the project based on the World Health Organization (WHO) principles in the software management of drug-resistant tuberculosis and those who are treated only in the framework of national programs and resources for the treatment of tuberculosis. It has been ascertained that the recommended WHO principles in the software management of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, by preserving the existing structure of patients, allow the efficiency of treatment to be enhanced by 14.8%. At the same time, mortality rates may be expected to be reduced by 45.3% and, if there are no effective social support programs for patients with tuberculosis, the proportion of patients who discontinue a treatment cycle may increase by 40.1%.
