Nurse education program aims to boost TB treatment success
NCT ID NCT06696053
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether adding nurse-led educational sessions helps people with tuberculosis stick to their treatment plan. About 40 adults recently diagnosed with TB will receive extra guidance from nurses. The goal is to see if this support improves treatment completion and reduces the number of patients lost to follow-up.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- therapeutic education program (nurse-led consultations)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that adding nurse-led education improves TB treatment completion rates, reducing relapse and spread.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply broadly. It does not test a new drug, so the impact is limited to care processes.
