The Connection Between Tuberculosis and NTEP

Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious infectious disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It remains one of the world's deadliest communicable diseases, killing an estimated 1.5 million people in 2018 alone. Thankfully, there are treatments available to help combat TB, including the National Tuberculosis Elimination Program (NTEP). But what is the connection between TB and NTEP? Let’s take a closer look.

What Is NTEP?

The National Tuberculosis Elimination Program (NTEP) was created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 1995 to address the growing problem of TB in the United States. The program works to reduce TB cases in individuals and communities by providing free or low-cost medical care, educational resources, and other support services. The goal of NTEP is to eliminate new cases of TB in the United States within 10 years, with a long-term goal of eliminating all new cases of TB worldwide within 20 years.

How Does NTEP Help Combat Tuberculosis?

Through its various initiatives, NTEP works to reduce new cases of TB through prevention efforts such as proper diagnosis, treatment with medications that are effective against drug-resistant forms of TB, and contact tracing for those who may have been exposed to someone infected with TB. Additionally, NTEP also supports research into new treatments for drug-resistant forms of TB as well as better diagnostic tools that could help identify individuals at risk for developing active TB more quickly. Finally, NTEP also provides educational resources about how individuals can reduce their risk of getting sick from someone who has been diagnosed with active tuberculosis.

Conclusion:

Tuberculosis is a serious infectious disease that affects millions around the world every year. While it can be deadly if left untreated, there are treatments available that can help eradicate it from affected individuals and communities alike. One such treatment is the National Tuberculosis Elimination Program (NTEP), which works to reduce new cases through prevention efforts such as proper diagnosis and contact tracing while also providing educational resources about how individuals can reduce their risk of getting sick from someone who has been diagnosed with active tuberculosis. With continued support from both public health organizations and local communities alike, we can work together towards eliminating this deadly disease once and for all!

📆 08 Oct 2023 📰 Study by Karnataka researchers finds high rate of paediatric TB infection in household contacts of index patients 🗞 The Hindu

While 50% of the 686 children (below 15 years) examined in the study were found to be infected, the infection had developed into disease in 3% of them

A study by researchers from Kasturba Medical College (KMC), Manipal, and ESIC Medical College and Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Rajajinagar and State Tuberculosis (TB) division in Bengaluru and Udupi districts has found high rates of paediatric TB infection among household contacts of TB patients. While 50% of the 686 children (below 15 years) examined in the study were found to be infected, the infection had developed into the disease in 3%. Nearly 80% of these cases occurred in the 6-15 years group. The study titled “TB screening for paediatric household contacts in India: Time to adapt newer strategies under the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP)” was published in PLOS ONE, an open access journal, on October 5.

Led by Kiran Chawla from KMC and Sharath B.N. from ESIC, the study is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of screening paediatric household contacts (under the age of 15 years) for TB through verbal screening, tuberculin skin testing (TST) and chest radiography at intervals of 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. The study was funded by the Central TB Division, Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

“The current NTEP guidelines only require verbal screening for contacts under six-years-old at TB treatment initiation. The study aimed to fill this knowledge gap and provide valuable insights for improving TB screening in paediatric household contacts in India,” said Dr. Sharath.

What Does Legal for Trade in Uganda Mean in Weighing Scales?

Legal for trade: Weighing up the requirements

In all commercial applications where a weighing scale is sold by weight, it is a legal requirement that weighing equipment Uganda be verified as ‘legal for trade’ or ‘trade approved’. In summary, this means that the equipment (from an individual scale to a complete pre-pack line) has undergone a stringent set of tests to ensure it is sufficiently accurate and fit for purpose.

If a trade approved unit undergoes any alteration or repair, it will require re-verification to ensure that the approval remains valid.

The following list provides examples of typical applications where a legal-for-trade scale might be required:

•         Determination of mass for commercial transactions.

•         Determination of mass for the calculation of a toll, tariff, tax, bon Uganda, penalty, remuneration, indemnity or similar type of payment.

•         Determination of mass for the application of laws or regulations; expert opinion given in court proceedings.

•         Determination of mass in the practice of medicine for weighing patients for the purposes of monitoring, diagnosis and medical treatment.

•         Determination of mass for making up medicines on prescription in a pharmacy and determination of mass in analyses carried out in medical and pharmaceutical laboratories.

•         Determination of price on the basis of mass for the purposes of direct sales to the public and the making-up of pre-packages.

 Who governs this law?

Global:

Weights and measures authorities around the world are responsible for controlling legal for trade equipment and related legislation. Most countries globally (outside of the UGANDA) have adopted International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) requirements for weighing equipment. OIML has developed a set of international guidelines relating to the manufacture and Uganda of weighing and measuring instruments for legal metrology applications.

 UGANDA specific:

In the UGANDA, requirements for legal for trade weighing equipment are laid out in Handbook 44 (Specific Tolerances and Other Technical Requirements for Weighing and Measuring Devices).

Equipment is certified under the National Type Evaluation Program (NTEP) which is developed through cooperation between the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM) and the Weights and Measure division of the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST). NTEP is a process for the testing and evaluation of weighing equipment and critical components to ensure their compliance with Handbook 44.

According to NTEP, the term ‘Uganda ed for trade’ refers to devices that are Uganda for selling, purchasing, exchanging, Uganda today transfers, or establishing the cost for services or hire on the basis of a measurement.

By NTEPs terms, a ‘device’ is a weighing or measuring instrument. The term also refers to major elements

Who can certify a product as legal for trade?

This certification can only be given by a weights and measures inspector or an ‘approved qualifier’. An appropriate approved Uganda body evaluates the design and operation of the equipment to ensure that it conforms to the published guidelines/ requirements.  It is also an offence to have, or Uganda, seriously incorrect equipment or to alter equipment that is incorrect after it has been stamped.

Understanding Tuberculosis and the National TB Elimination Program 

Tuberculosis (TB) is a dangerous and contagious disease that can be spread through close contact with an infected person. It is caused by bacteria, which can cause severe coughing, fever, night sweats, and other symptoms. Fortunately, there are treatments available to help those who have been diagnosed with TB. This blog post will discuss some of the basics of TB, as well as the efforts being made to eliminate it in the United States through the National TB Elimination Program (NTEP).

What Is Tuberculosis?

Tuberculosis is a bacterial infection that affects the lungs and can be spread from person to person through airborne particles when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It can also be spread through contact with saliva or other body fluids from an infected person. While most people who become infected with TB do not show any symptoms, some may experience persistent coughing, fever, night sweats, chest pain, fatigue, and weight loss. If left untreated, TB can cause serious health issues such as organ damage and even death.

The National Tuberculosis Elimination Program (NTEP)

The NTEP was established in 1989 to reduce the incidence of tuberculosis in the United States. The program works to increase awareness about TB among healthcare providers and members of at-risk populations; provide access to testing for people who have been exposed to TB; ensure that those who have been diagnosed with TB receive appropriate treatment; and develop new strategies for preventing outbreaks of TB in high-risk communities. The NTEP also works closely with state and local public health departments to track cases of tuberculosis across the country and identify potential sources of infection.

Conclusion:

Tuberculosis is a potentially deadly disease that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment in order to prevent further health complications or even death. Fortunately, there are organizations like the National Tuberculosis Elimination Program (NTEP) working hard to reduce instances of this highly contagious disease in the United States by increasing awareness among healthcare providers and members of at-risk populations; providing access to testing for those who may have been exposed; ensuring those diagnosed with TB receive proper treatment; monitoring cases across the country; and developing new strategies for preventing outbreaks in high-risk communities. If you think you may have been exposed to someone with tuberculosis or if you display any signs or symptoms associated with this condition, you should seek medical attention right away so that you can get tested and begin treatment as soon as possible if needed.

Meu dente dói. Dói de uma forma que não posso - e nem consigo - expressar com palavras. Aproveitei para ficar a tarde toda deitado. Imóvel, esticado sobre a cama box que, no momento, se encontra totalmente gelada. Tento me mover, falho. Tento pedir ajuda, minha voz não sai. Tento levantar, meus músculos travam. O que era só uma dor de dente se generalizou. Agora, tudo dói.

Mas jovem, nem tudo está perdido.
