ABSTRACT
In 1995 the pulmonary tuberculosis eradication program was implemented with the
DOTS strategy, one of the components in the DOTS strategy was OAT given for 6-8
months which is the most cost-effective health strategy. This study aims to determine
whether there are still acid-fast bacilli (AFB) in the sputum of patients after intensive
treatment for six months, which will be controlled through microscopic testing using
Ziehl Neelsen staining with the concentration method.The results showed that from
15 samples of patients who had been treated with OAT, 12% were smear positive (2
samples) and 26% were Genexpert (15 samples). And the results of the examination
are suggested to patients with positive test results, the treatment should be
continued
