Abstract
Although Ghana does not fall into the category of those countries which have a high burden of tuberculosis (TB), the disease does present considerable economic and health limitations to individuals infected with, and affected by, the disease, as well as to the health system in general. Despite this fact, insufficient studies have been done on the key barriers to controlling the disease. This paper presents results from an exploratory study on the constraints of controlling TB in Ghana based on the opinions of health service providers.

Participants were purposively selected from a pool of national and regional, and district and facility level coordinators of the National Tuberculosis Control Programme (NTP). One key informant was also selected from an international non-governmental organisation (NGO) involved in TB-related activities in Ghana. Observations were utilised to complement the study. Data were analysed inductively.</AbstractText><AbstractText Label="RESULTS" NlmCategory="RESULTS">Respondents identified the following as being constraints to TB control: clinical complication, bottlenecks in funding administration, quality of physical infrastructure, competition for attention and funding, unsatisfactory coordination between TB and HIV control programmes, a poor public-private partnership, and weak monitoring and evaluation of interventions.</AbstractText><AbstractText Label="CONCLUSIONS" NlmCategory="CONCLUSIONS">This paper provides evidence of some key barriers to TB control. The barriers, as reported, were generally health system-based. Although this list of barriers is not exhaustive, it would be useful to take them into account when planning for TB control, thus adopting a more rounded approach to TB management in the country. As well as that, further studies should be done to explore patients' views on health service-related barriers to TB control.</AbstractText></Abstract><AuthorList CompleteYN="Y"><Author ValidYN="Y"><LastName>Amo-Adjei</LastName><ForeName>Joshua</ForeName><Initials>J</Initials><AffiliationInfo><Affiliation>Department of Population and Health, University of Cape Coast, Cape Coast, Ghana. kjamoadjei@yahoo.com.</Affiliation></AffiliationInfo></Author></AuthorList><Language>eng</Language><PublicationTypeList><PublicationType UI="D016428">Journal Article</PublicationType></PublicationTypeList><ArticleDate DateType="Electronic"><Year>2013</Year><Month>05</Month><Day>02</Day></ArticleDate></Article><MedlineJournalInfo><Country>England</Country><MedlineTA>Infect Dis Poverty</MedlineTA><NlmUniqueID>101606645</NlmUniqueID><ISSNLinking>2049-9957</ISSNLinking></MedlineJournalInfo><CommentsCorrectionsList><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>PLoS One. 2010 Apr 06;5(4):e10043</RefSource><PMID Version="1">20386611</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>BMC Infect Dis. 2008 Jul 22;8:97</RefSource><PMID Version="1">18647400</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Health Policy. 2010 Dec;98(2-3):195-202</RefSource><PMID Version="1">20637520</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Arch Intern Med. 2003 May 12;163(9):1009-21</RefSource><PMID Version="1">12742798</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Health Policy Plan. 2006 Jul;21(4):265-74</RefSource><PMID Version="1">16728512</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Harv Bus Rev. 1999 Nov-Dec;77(6):121-30, 216</RefSource><PMID Version="1">10662001</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Bull World Health Organ. 2005 Mar;83(3):217-23</RefSource><PMID Version="1">15798846</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Clin Microbiol Infect. 2004 May;10(5):388-98</RefSource><PMID Version="1">15113314</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg. 2005 Nov;99(11):827-32</RefSource><PMID Version="1">16102791</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Am J Clin Pathol. 2009 Jun;131(6):849-51</RefSource><PMID Version="1">19461092</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>PLoS Med. 2007 Feb;4(2):e37</RefSource><PMID Version="1">17298164</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Health Policy. 2005 Apr;72(1):93-104</RefSource><PMID Version="1">15760702</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Int J Tuberc Lung Dis. 2006 Jun;10(6):649-55</RefSource><PMID Version="1">16776452</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Lancet. 2006 Mar 18;367(9514):938-40</RefSource><PMID Version="1">16546542</PMID></CommentsCorrections><CommentsCorrections RefType="Cites"><RefSource>Infect Dis Poverty. 2012 Dec 24;1(1):13</RefSource><PMID Version="1">23849044</PMID></CommentsCorrections></CommentsCorrectionsList><OtherID Source="NLM">PMC3710189</OtherID></MedlineCitation><PubmedData><History><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="received"><Year>2013</Year><Month>01</Month><Day>15</Day></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="accepted"><Year>2013</Year><Month>04</Month><Day>23</Day></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="entrez"><Year>2013</Year><Month>7</Month><Day>16</Day><Hour>6</Hour><Minute>0</Minute></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="pubmed"><Year>2013</Year><Month>7</Month><Day>16</Day><Hour>6</Hour><Minute>0</Minute></PubMedPubDate><PubMedPubDate PubStatus="medline"><Year>2013</Year><Month>7</Month><Day>16</Day><Hour>6</Hour><Minute>1</Minute></PubMedPubDate></History><PublicationStatus>epublish</PublicationStatus><ArticleIdList><ArticleId IdType="pubmed">23849141</ArticleId><ArticleId IdType="pii">2049-9957-2-9</ArticleId><ArticleId IdType="doi">10.1186/2049-9957-2-9</ArticleId><ArticleId IdType="pmc">PMC3710189</ArticleId></ArticleIdList></PubmedData></pubmed><affiliations><list><country><li>Ghana</li></country></list><tree><country name="Ghana"><noRegion><name sortKey="Amo Adjei, Joshua" sort="Amo Adjei, Joshua" uniqKey="Amo Adjei J" first="Joshua" last="Amo-Adjei">Joshua Amo-Adjei</name></noRegion></country></tree></affiliations></record>Pour manipuler ce document sous Unix (Dilib)
