IDENTIFYING BARRIERS TO TB DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT UNDER A NEW RAPID DIAGNOSTIC SCHEME. IMPACT RECORD. CONTENTS * Abstract * Citation * Links ABSTRACT The authors have been successful in
influencing international health policy in tuberculosis and the processes here are described in our impact report (one of our nominated outputs). They have brought in £3,026,976 worth of
multiplier funding to test out approaches to bring tuberculosis services closer to communities in Ethiopia, Yemen and Nigeria. These are showing very promising results and have attracted
interest from multiple players. They have also been successful in feeding into policy dialogue within the World Health Organisation about the process of diagnosing tuberculosis and the
importance from a patient perspective of being able to complete the diagnostic process within one day (rather than multiple visits). CITATION Theobald, S.J.; Cuevas, L.E. Identifying
