Abstract
|
|
|
Objective: The study was performed to identify outcomes of a pilot project of community-based care and management for
tuberculosis patients.
Methods: During the study period, we conducted a vulnerability assessment for all notified tuberculosis patients and implemented an enhanced case management according to the grade of the vulnerability.
Findings: As a result, firstly, the intermediate and high vulnerable groups were likely to be associated with unfavorable
outcomes compared with the low-vulnerable group. Furthermore, among the intermediate and high-vulnerable groups, the
enhanced case management was tended to be inversely associated with unfavorable outcomes, but with little statistical
significance.
