A novel PTLD clinical diagnostic algorithm
A clinical diagnostic algorithm designed to help TB clinicians identify patients at risk of post-tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) at the end of TB treatment. The algorithm is implemented as a visual aid and structured questionnaire integrated into routine care. Clinicians use it to screen TB survivors and refer suspected PTLD cases to a post-TB clinic for confirmatory evaluation and management.
