USAID funded Georgia Tuberculosis Prevention Project facilitated translation of the revised TB Definitions and adaptation of the recording and reporting forms as recommended by WHO. The new WHO document updates the previous standard case definitions for TB and drug-resistant TB, the categories used to assign outcomes and the standard reporting framework for TB. The revised definitions and forms were approved by the Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Affairs and TPP developed a training program to support countrywide implementation of the revised TB definitions and reporting-recording system. The trainings were conducted in February – March, 2015 and covered all TB specialists, as well as lab technicians involved in TB diagnosis in Georgia.
