Performance Evaluation of Truenat Mtb and Truenat Mtb-rif Dx Assays in Comparison to Gene Xpert Mtb/rif Ultra for the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Tuberculosis in Uganda

2023-12-06

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background The World Health Organization endorsed Truenat MTB rapid molecular assay in 2020 and recommended additional in-country evaluation studies before uptake. We evaluated the accuracy and operational feasibility of Truenat MTB assay (Truenat) in comparison with GeneXpert Ultra and culture. Methods In a cross-sectional study of 250 presumptive TB patients, participants were reque...
