INPUT – NTP guidelines for directly observed
therapy (DOT)
PROCESS – NTP training workshops on how to
implement DOT
OUTPUT – Number of nurses trained on
administration of DOT
Intermediate OUTCOME – Proportion of smear
positive TB cases on DOT increases
Long term OUTCOME – Treatment success rate
increases to 85%
IMPACT – Decreased morbidity and mortality due to
TB and prevention of MDR -TB
