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 =

                                                                     510 / 790 * 100

                                                        = 72.2%.

                                                (100 % is desirable)

Arbitarily decided on yearly basis based on .

 

1.Trends in   previous year TB notification

 

2. Anti TB Drug sales data

 

3.Reports of subnational certification survey/ TB Prevalence  surveys/ other studies if available

 

Estimated figures are entered TB

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 =

                                                       510 /790  *100 = 72.2%.

It would have been ideal if the value was 100 %
