Unmasking rifampicin mono-resistance in tuberculosis patients in Cross River State, Nigeria

2024-12-19

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Current tuberculosis management algorithm in Nigeria recommends commencement of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) treatment on rifampicin resistance detection, following XpertMTB/Rif (Genexpert) test and subsequent re-direction of therapy after phenotypic drug susceptibility testing. With the current dearth of phenotypic drug susceptibility testing facilities in Nig...
