  1. Presentation 1Introduction • Contents • • Global Tuberculosis Scenario • Burden of Tuberculosis in India • •RNTCP- Evolution, objectives, structure, achievements NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  2. Global burden of TB • 2 billion infected, i.e. 1 in 3 of global population • 9.4 million (139/lakh) new cases in 2008, 80% in 22 high-burden countries • 4 m new sm+ve PTB (61/lakh) casesin 2008 • Global incidence of TB has peaked in 2004 and is declining. • 1.77m deaths in 2007, 98% in low-income countries • MDR-TB -prevalence in new cases around 3.6% NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06 Ref: WHO Global Report, 2006

  4. Millennium Development Goals • Goal 6: “Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases” • Target 8: “By 2015, to have halted and begun to reverse the incidence of malaria and other major diseases…” • Indicator 23: between 1990 and 2015 to halve prevalence of TB disease and deaths due to TB • Indicator 24: to detect 70% of new infectious cases and to successfully treat 85% of detected sputum positive patients NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  5. Stop TB Partnership Targets • By 2005: • At least 70% people with sputum smear positive TB will be diagnosed. • At least 85% cured. • By 2015: • Global burden of TB (prevalence and death rates) will be reduced by 50% relative to 1990 levels. • Reduce prevalence to <150 per lakh population • Reduce deaths to <15 per lakh population • Number of people dying from TB in 2015 should be less than 1 million, including those co-infected with HIV • By 2050: • Global incidence of TB disease will be less than or equal to 1 case per million population per year NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  6. Stop TB Strategy, 2006 • Vision: A world free of TB • Goal: To dramatically reduce the global burden of TB by 2015 in line with Millennium Development Goals and the Stop TB Partnership targets NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  7. Components of Stop TB Strategy, 2006 • Pursuing high-quality DOTS expansion and enhancement • Addressing TB/HIV, MDR-TB and other challenges • Contributing to health system strengthening • Engaging all health providers • Empowering people with TB, and communities • Enabling and promoting research NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  8. Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course strategy (DOTS), 1994 • Government commitment to TB control • Diagnosis by smear microscopy mostly on self-reporting symptomatic patients • Standardised short course chemotherapy (SCC) with direct observation of treatment (DOT) • Efficient system of drug supply • Efficient recording and reporting system with assessment of treatment results • Five components were expanded in 2002 NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  9. Global Situation • Since 1995,over 21 million patients have been diagnosed and treated in DOTS programmes • In 2007, 5.5 million new and relapse TB cases were initiated on treatment under DOTS strategy • Of 2.5 million new smear positive patients registered in 2006, 85% were successfully treated under DOTS NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  11. International Standards for TB Care-2006-revised in 2009 • Developed by Tuberculosis Coalition for Technical Assistance • Members of TCTA • American Thoracic Society • WHO (World Health Organisation) • CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) • KCNV(Dutch Tuberculosis Foundation), • IUATLD (The International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease) • Part of the new STOP TB Strategy and global plan to Stop TB NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  12. International Standards for TB Care • The ISTC is designed to address the care of patients of all ages with any manifestation of the disease, including multi-drug resistant and extra-pulmonary tuberculosis and tuberculosis combined with HIV infection. • The ISTC is also designed to guide providers everywhere, regardless of the circumstances of their practice. • Consists of 21 standards for Public Health Responsibility NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  14. Problem of TB in India • Estimated incidence • 1.96 million new cases annually • 0.8 million new smear positive cases annually • 75 new smear positive PTB cases/1lakh population per year • Estimated prevalence of TB disease • 3.8 million bacillary cases in 2000 • 1.7 million new smear positive cases in 2000 • Estimated mortality • 330,000 deaths due to TB each year • Over 1000 deaths a day • 2 deaths every 3 minutes Gopi P et al (TRC), IJMR, Sep 2005 NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  15. Problem of TB in India (contd) • Prevalence of TB infection • 40% (~400m) infected with M. tuberculosis (with a 10% lifetime risk of TB disease in the absence of HIV) • Estimated Multi-drug resistant TB • < 3% in new cases • 12% in re-treatment cases • TB-HIV • ~2.31 million people living with HIV (PLWHA) • 10-15% annual risk (60% lifetime risk) of developing active TB disease in PLWHA • Estimated ~ 5% of TB patients are HIV infected NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06

  16. India is the highest TB burden country accounting for more than one-fifth of the global incidence Global annual incidence = 9.4 million India annual incidence = 1.96 million India is 17th among 22 High Burden Countries (in terms of TB incidence rate) NTF Presentations for RNTCP Sensitization First edition 10th Nov 06 Source: WHO Geneva; WHO Report 2009: Global Tuberculosis Control; Surveillance, Planning and Financing
