NTP PROGRAM RESPONSE – DOTS
AND DOTS PLUS IMPLEMENTATION




Accepted first NTP, based on WHOrecommended DOTS strategy ALL FIVE
ELEMENTS in 1995
DOTS countywide including prisons in
1996
FIRSTS STEP OF National TB Control
program for treating MDR TB patients in
1997
Established drug resistance surveillance
1997
SUSTAINED POLITICAL
COMMITMENT

Government Committed to establish NTP plan
using existing staff and resources, within the
Health Care reform
Well functioning DOTS program with additional
treatment of MDR TB (within recourses available)
 Collaboration and coordination between community,
local governments, social services and international
agencies


Established centralized procurement of drugs
through open tender
DOTS PLUS IMPLEMENTATION
STEP I - 1997

SITUATION ANALYSIS
Results of drug resistance surveillance
 QA of laboratory for DST
 MDR TB case finding strategy –


DST for all who starts treatment
Reporting and registration of MDR TB
 Evaluated access to TB drugs and created new drug
management system

TB CASE DETECTION AND
IDENTIFICATION OF MDR-TB

STEP II


MDR TB TREATMENT AND MANAGEMENT
STRATEGY
 Established Expert consilium for case and program
management 1997, June
 TB hospitals reorganized for MDR TB
 Start patient enrolment for treatment
Empiric/Individualized treatment strategy



according to DST results
Directly observed therapy (DOT)
Monitoring and management of side effects
CONSILIUM FOR MDR TB
TREATMENT AND MANAGEMENT

Advantages

Collective decision
Possibility for patients
to receive most
effective treatment
Possibility to
supervise treatment
Problem solving
Improvement of
program management

Since 1998 total number of annually registered MDR TB cases decreased
by 51% for previously treated by 65%
CONCLUSIONS AND
RECCOMENDATIONS

DOTS strategy has reduced MDR TB development by
51% in Latvia

DOTS-Plus in addition to DOTS in settings with high
MDR TB level can reach WHO goal for cure 85%

2/3 of patients who started treatment in DOTS plus
were cured

Addressing treatment default could significantly
improve program effectiveness

Strengthening of the DOTS strategy, rapid MDR TB
diagnosis, contact investigation and genotyping to
detect chain of transmission is the next steps to
improve MDR TB control in Latvia
