HIV status of a patient can be reactive, nonreactive or unavailable.

Patients with results as reactive and non-reactive are included in the numerator.

The indicator can be monitored at the TB Unit (TU), district, and state levels.

 

Example:

In District A, the total number of TB cases notified in the year 2020 is 300. Out of them, 240 patients are HIV non-reactive and 10 patients are HIV-reactive as per the data from Ni-kshay.

The percentage of TB notified patients with known HIV status = (240+10) / 300 = (250 * 100) / 300     (100% is desirable)
