TB Performance Indicator - Percentage of Target TB Notification Achieved
Percentage of Target TB notification achieved is one of the most important indicators to assess the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP) performance at the state/ UT, district or TB Unit (TU) level.
Indicator | Numerator | Denominator | Multiplier | Data source |
% Target TB notification achieved | Total TB cases notified during a defined period | Target TB patients estimated for the year | 100 | Ni-kshay |
Numerator - The data regarding the total TB cases notified in the defined time period is available in Ni-kshay
Denominator - Target TB patients estimated for the year are arbitrarily decided on a yearly basis area-wise based on:
1. Trends in previous year's notification
2. Anti-TB drug sale data
3. Reports of subnational certification survey/ TB Prevalence surveys/ other studies, if available
The estimated figures are entered in Ni-kshay at the beginning of every year.
Example:
The estimated target for TB notifications of District X in the year 2021 is 790. But the number of notified cases in District X in the year 2021 is 510.
% Target TB notification achieved =
= 72.2%.
(100 % is desirable)
