RESUMO

Background: Using data from the Zimbabwe Population-based HIV Impact Assessment survey 2015-2016, we examined the TB care cascade and factors associated with not receiving TB diagnostic testing among adult PLHIV with TB symptoms. Methods: Statistical Analysis was limited to PLHIV aged 15 years and older in HIV care. Weighted logistic regression with not receiving TB testing as outcome was adjusted for covariates with crude odd ratios (ORs) with p < 0.25. All analyses accounted for multistage survey design. Results: Among 3507 adult PLHIV in HIV care, 2288 (59.7 %, 95 % CI:58.1-61.3) were female and 2425 (63.6 %, 95 % CI:61.1-66.1) lived in rural areas. 1197(48.7 %, 95 % CI:46.5-51.0) reported being screened for TB symptoms at their last HIV care visit. In the previous 12 months, 639 (26.0 %, 95 % CI:23.9-28.1) reported having symptoms and of those, 239 (37.8 %, 95 % CI:33.3-42.2) received TB testing. Of PLHIV tested for TB, 36 (49.5 %, 95 % CI:35.0-63.1) were diagnosed with TB; 32 (90.3 %, 95 % CI:78.9-100) of those diagnosed with TB received treatment. Never having used IPT was associated with not receiving TB testing. Conclusion: The results suggest suboptimal utilization of TB screening and diagnostic testing among PLHIV. New approaches are needed to reach opportunities missed in the HIV/TB integrated services.
