Description
Health centre inclusion criteria:
- Reporting ≥12 index TB cases per month to the national TB program,
- Located outside the borders of but ≤180 km from Kampala District
Health centre exclusion criteria:
1) Administrators of the health centre do not agree to participate in the study
Individual inclusion criteria for index persons with TB (also known as index TB patients or TB cases):
- Being an adult or child recorded as a new TB case in the on-site National TB and Leprosy Programme TB treatment register, and
- Residing ≤40 km from the enrolling health centre,
Individual exclusion criteria for index persons with TB :
- Lacking the capacity to consent to contact investigation,
- Lacking close contacts,
- Having possible or confirmed drug-resistant TB,
- Previously received TB contact investigation within the last 2 months, and
- Not agreeing to refer close contacts for contact investigation.
Inclusion criteria for close contacts:
1) Being an adult or child reporting ≥12 cumulative hours with the TB patient inside an enclosed space within the previous 3 months,
Exclusion criteria for close contacts:
- Lacking the capacity to consent to contact investigation,
- Currently taking treatment for active TB, and
- Not agreeing to participate in contact investigation.

Active Comparator: Standard Implementation Strategy Period
During the standard implementation strategy period, CHWs at all sites will receive the standard TB program training on TB contact investigation and supportive supervision from the on-site National TB Program focal person.
|
Once an eligible TB patient agrees to participate, CHWs will visit the patient to assess the eligibility of close contacts to participate.
For eligible contacts who agree to participate, the CHW will perform TB symptom screening and arrange subsequent microbiologic, clinical, and/or radiographic evaluation.
Those screening TB symptom-positive will be asked to expectorate a sputum sample, unless under age 5.
If under age 5 or unable to produce sputum, contacts will be referred to the health centre for evaluation.
A CHW will transport sputum samples to the health-centre laboratory for microbiologic evaluation and later report the test results back to the contact.
During the standard implementation strategy period, CHWs at all sites will receive the standard TB program training on TB contact investigation and supportive supervision from the on-site National TB Program focal person.

Experimental: Enhanced Contact Investigation Intervention Period
The enhanced contact investigation strategy includes 4 implementation facilitation tools and 3 continuous quality improvement techniques and will be delivered as a branded package named for an inspirational Luganda phrase that is translated as "We are together with you."
Implementation facilitation tools include 1) a TB education pamphlet, 2) a contact identification algorithm, 3) an instructional video on sputum collection, and 4) community health riders who transport clients, community health workers, and sputum samples by motorcycle.
The continuous quality improvement techniques delivered as the community of practice package include 1) community of practice meetings, 2) audit and feedback reports and 3) a group chat application.
