Detection of pulmonary tuberculosis among patients with cough attending outpatient departments in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania: does duration of cough matter
BMC Health Services Research, 07/02/09

Ngadaya ES et al. - Detection of smear positive PTB among patients who coughed for less than two weeks was as high as for those who coughed for two weeks or more. According to WHO estimates, tuberculosis case detection rate in Tanzania is less than 50% and this poses a major challenge to control tuberculosis in the country. Currently, one of the defining criteria for suspecting tuberculosis is cough for two weeks or more.
