Synopsis

Outpatient treatment is to date widely used in phthisiology. According to various authors, outpatient treatment promotes rapid recovery and reduces the risk of contracting drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis. In line with the WHO strategy: “EndTB”, one of the important tasks is the integration of digital healthcare technologies in the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis. Video-Observed Treatment (VOT) was recommended by the National Tuberculosis Control Program in Kazakhstan and was introduced in 2018 in all regions of the country.
