The CQUIN Project 3rd Annual Meeting | November 10-14, 2019

Introduction

❑ In 2018 the UNHLM political declaration put TB prevention as one of the key elements to ending the TB epidemic.

❑A ¼ of the world’s population (1.8 billion) have LTBI and carry a lifetime risk of getting sick with active TB disease.

❑This risk can be substantially reduced by TB Preventive Treatment (60% among PLHIV and 70% in U5 contacts).

❑Tuberculosis is the leading cause of death among People living with HIV even in the era of ART

Introduction

❑In 2017, 32% of the AIDS related deaths were due to TB globally

❑To End TB, it is not only essential to treat active TB when it happens but to prevent it from happening. “Closing the tap”

❑Uganda endorsed a form of TPT called Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) and has been providing IPT to PLHIV for about 5 years now

Trends in IPT uptake in Uganda

❑ Prior 100-day IPT scale up plan, uptake of this important intervention was still low even with Surge efforts.

❑ The 100-day plan is a critical intervention that will put Uganda back on track towards achieving the UNHLM and END TB targets.

The 100-Day Accelerated IPT Scale-Up plan

❑On 3rd July 2019 was the launch of an accelerated plan to reach 300,000 PLHIV with TPT within 100 days

❑AIM;

▪ To help initiate 50% of all PLHIV in need of this life saving treatment

❑The 100 days was the first step towards complete roll out of IPT

❑MOH organized and set in place all the tools & supplies needed to accomplish this task (IPT scale up toolkit)

Systems Approach to TPT coverage and retention

• INH/ B6

• Competent H/W

• Data tools – IPT registers

• Job aids, guidelines, ICF tools

• Coaches/ district mentors

Inputs

• System to identify all eligible clients ( line listing, file review, separating files and stickers)

• System to reach all eligible clients ( clients brought to the facility, H/W goes out to the clients, phone calls, CHWS)

• Efficient system to attend to the clients when they come ( identified clients, pre-packing of INH with ARVs, fast tracking stable clients, education and counselling)

• System to follow up and retain clients on TPT

• Data management systems

• System to sustain INH/ B6 stock levels

Processes to improve coverage and retention

• All eligible clients identified

Output

Outcome

• Reduced TB incidence and mortality

Impact

All eligible clients receive TPT; TPT clients complete therapy

Key Action Areas

2. INH/ B6 Stocks• Improve Provider

Skills for Stock Management.

1.Systems for IPT Delivery: • Address Client Flow and Facility

systems for delivery for Fast track clients, new clients,

• Plan to reach stable clients in the community based DSDM

3. H/W competence and skills• Provide ‘just in time’ skills

building to a multi-disciplinary team and job aids

• Focus on reducing ‘know-do’ gap

5. Create awareness/ demandSimple key messages DAILY for the clients to address adherence and increase demand

4. Availability of data tools and use:• Share targets, create a

plan for meeting the daily clinic targets.

• Use data on PLHIV in care and ever enrolled on IPT to determine gap

TB Prevention for PLHIV in DSDM

❑All PLHIV & U5 contacts have their IPTinitiated at the Facility where thehealth worker;▪ Screens clients to exclude active TB &

contra-indications of isoniazid

▪ Prepares the patient or caretaker for IPT

▪ Prescribes the recommended dose for theclient’s weight

▪ Records in the IPT register

❑Align IPT and ART refills

❑Developed SOPs for guidance onproviding IPT in community models

Monitoring for IPT 100-day scale-up intervention

❑Indicators reported on weekly by districts

▪ Number of individuals initiating IPT

▪ Number of individuals completing IPT from among the previous cohort (quarterly).

❑Weekly dashboard shared with NTF, IPs and DHOs every Friday

❑Detailed analysis at all levels on performance of districts and facilities. Those not achieving targets were engaged for improvement.

Role of District Health Teams

❑Commissioning of TPT at facilities to be undertaken to re-assure confidence of HCW and clients

❑Oversight for IPT implementation in the district

❑DHOs/MMS ensure drug availability, emergency drug redistribution, adverse drug reaction reporting etc.

❑With support from IPs, assist in quantification and redistribution of child courses to facilities in district

❑Conduct weekly monitoring meetings with all stakeholders including Networks of PLHIVs

❑Ensure reporting of IPT coverage from implementing facilities

❑Ensure accountability for performance on IPT uptake and completion at facilities

The Role of the Implementing Partner

❑ Collaborate with MoH NTF to plan & execute a multi-stakeholder response

❑ Support the identification of health facilities suitable for increase in coverage and uptake of TPT for PLHIV and retention through CQI approach

❑ Conduct entry meeting with DHO & DHT to sensitize about the 100 Days

❑ Analyse & address capacity building & mentorship gaps at the H/Facilities

❑ Facilitate the collection and transmission of routine weekly data from sites

❑ Support collection of monthly data on medicines

❑ Ensure drug availability, emergency drug redistribution, adverse drug reaction reporting, etc

❑ Support conducting CQI projects to strengthen IPT implementation

❑ Engage DHTs in the TPT scale up process and share weekly dashboard with the DHO and health facility teams

Expected results

Primary Result

❑ 300000 PLHIVs screened and initiated on IPT at 382 selected H/facilities

❑ 100% completion rates for individuals that initiated IPT in quarters: October-December 2018, and January-February 2019.

Outcomes

❑ Increase in availability of INH 300mg and Vitamin B6 at central stores and at initiating sites

❑ Increased routine screening use of diagnostics to rule out active tuberculosis amongst PLHIV

❑ Increase in collaboration and integration of planning and implementation for HIV and TB services at national, district, facility and community levels.

❑ Increase health worker skill and confidence in initiating IPT

❑ Increased in the application of quality improvement science in identifying and in action on barriers to IPT uptake.
