TB
Our findings indicate that both strategies are effective. Same-day TB testing and treatment initiation may be preferred at sites with this capacity, but short delays in treatment initiation do not appear to compromise outcomes.An important caveat is that treatment was provided rapidly in the standard group, reflecting current standard practice.This study is limited by being conducted at a single, large, urban HIV clinic in Haiti. Further study will be necessary to determine if these findings are reproducible in other settings.
