  • 1. Current cough
  • 2. Fever
  • 3. Night sweats
  • 4. Weight loss

Sensitivity: 78.9% Specificity: 49.6% NPV: high if TB prevalence <10%

Xpert MTB/RIF: A ‘game-changer’?

  • Pros include

– Exceptional performance for TB diagnosis – Rapid RIF Resistance screening – Near patient technology

  • Some cons

– RIF resistance specificity – Xpert-negative TB – Expense

  • 4 bay machine $17,000
  • 1 cartridge approx $15

– Simple – but not simple enough – Will it be used at point-of-care?

CONCLUSIONS

  • Huge progress over the past 5 years
  • Major progress in rapid molecular techniques
  • Xpert MTB/RIF

– is a huge step forward – far from the prefect solution – has triggered a huge amount of development

  • Determine TB-LAM

– a POC niche for those with v. low CD4 counts

  • Impact data needed
