BRAC’s Tuberculosis Program: Pioneering DOTS Treatment for TB in Rural Bangladesh

Abstract:

This case examines the development of a tuberculosis (TB) treatment program in Bangladesh by the non-governmental organization, BRAC, from 1984 to 2006. After providing background about Bangladesh, the burden of TB there, and BRAC, the case examines how this program was piloted and grew to cover a population of 80 million people. It details how BRAC was able to create a TB control program that utilized community health workers to perform most of its essential functions including case finding, directly-observed therapy, identification of complications, and record keeping. The case concludes with a brief summary of BRAC’s expansion to Afghanistan and recently, Africa, and asks the reader to consider the feasibility of this TB care model in other contexts and in other conditions, such as HIV/AIDS.

3.4 fighting tb and the world's deadliest animal - malaria's mosquito

 the global fund bundles budgets for malaria. tb and aids together

in 2005 gates awarded abed their health prize mainly for innovation in fighting tb but also malaria

at brac the worldwide knowhow leader for tb and malaria is i think the same


brac brief on malaria and tb

hence 2021 latest repotfro gates on malaria may be of interest

By Bill Gates | August 25, 2021
Welcome to Mosquito Week 2021 on the Gates Notes.
Last year, many people feared a malaria catastrophe. An analysis by the World Health Organization found that disruptions to malaria control and treatment due to COVID-19 could lead to a dramatic increase in malaria deaths in sub-Saharan Africa.
A year later, I’m happy to report that this worst-case scenario, at least for now, has been avoided.
This Mosquito Week I share the story of how African countries averted disaster by quickly adapting their malaria programs to meet the challenges of the pandemic.
I also highlight the research the U.S. military is doing to combat the mosquito, which has caused more casualties for troops than bombs and bullets.
Finally, I provide an update on an amazing breakthrough that might control the spread of dengue fever, a terrible mosquito-borne disease that infects 400 million people every year.
Thanks for your interest in learning about all the innovation underway to fight diseases spread by the world’s deadliest animal.

Tuberculosis Control

Tuberculosis (TB) has been a major public health concern for Bangladesh for decades. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Bangladesh ranks seventh among the 22 highest TB-burdened countries. BRAC initiated the tuberculosis control programme in 1984 in one district as a pilot. In 1994, BRAC became the first NGO in the country to sign a memorandum of understanding with the government to expand directly observed treatment short course (DOTS) services across the country. BRAC also became a principle recipient (PR) of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM), along with the government. The aim of the programmeis to reduce the morbidity, mortality and transmission of TB until it is no longer a public health problem.

BRAC's shasthya shebikas(frontline community health worker) play a pivotal role inconnecting individuals with TB control services during household visits and health forums. They disseminate TB-specific messages to the community, identify presumptive TB patients and refer them, for sputum examination, to the governmen tsub-district health complex or peripheral laboratories of BRAC. The frontline health workers also ensure regular intake of medicine for identified TB patients through DOTS. They refer complicated TB patients to health facilities for further treatment and for proper management of side effects and other complications during TB treatment.

BRAC's approach towards the diagnosis and treatment of TB focuses on community level education and engagement. The programme conducts orientation with different stakeholders of the community to engage them in efforts to identify TB patients, ensure treatment adherence, and reduce stigma surrounding TB. The stakeholders include cured TB patients, local religious leaders, school going children, girls' guides and scouts, other NGO workers, formal and non-formal care providers like graduate private practitioners, village doctors and pharmacists.

Currently, BRAC covers 297 sub-districts from 42 districts, 7 city corporations with a population of 92.9 million people including 31 academic institutes, 41 prisons, 405 peripheral laboratories and 26 external quality assessment centres. BRAC is leading a group of 42 local NGOs who are the sub -recipients (SRs) of the GFATM under the same umbrella of NTP. BRAC supervises, monitors, guides and provides technical assistance to the SRs,to ensure that the quality of the service delivered is uncompromised.

 

Malaria Control

Malaria is a major public health problem in some parts of Bangladesh, particularly in 13 districts in the north-east & south-east areas which border India and Myanmar. Among them are the Chittagong hill tracts (CHT) districts which highly endemic and Cox’s Bazar which is moderately endemic. The other districts are categorised as low endemic areas as fewer numbers of cases have been reported there. Sporadic incidences occur in other parts of the country.

The National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) established an effective partnership with a consortium of 21 NGOs led by BRAC. This partnership has leveraged the programme and increased the access to malaria treatment, prevention and awareness raising activities within communities, including the hard-to-reach areas.

In partnership with the National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP), BRAC successfully secured a grant from the GFATM to strengthen and expand national malaria control activities to all endemic districts working directly and through other NGOs. BRAC is directly implementing malaria control activities in all sub districts of CHT, two sub districts of Moulvibazar, and through 20 partner NGOs in other districts which are monitored and supervised by BRAC. To reduce the overall burden of malaria (morbidity and mortality) by 60 percent from baseline year 2008 in 10.9 million populations in 13 high endemic districts of Bangladesh by 2015.

Goal

To reduce the overall burden of malaria (morbidity and mortality) in the 13 high endemic districts of Bangladesh by 60 percent, by the year 2015.

Objectives

  • To expand the use of Long Lasting Insecticidal bed Nets (LLIN)( two nets per household), to achieve 100 percent coverage in the three malaria endemic districts and to maintain 80 percent coverage with Insecticide Treated bed Nets (ITN)/LLIN in the remaining districts.
  • To expand and improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment of malaria cases to 90 percent.
  • To further strengthen programme management and partnership coordination surrounding malaria control.

BRAC’s community based model has been applied in malaria programmes to promote health education, empowerment and home based services. BRAC’s shasthyashebikas and shasthyakormis diagnose malaria patients using a Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) kit, therefore providing treatment at a household level They also refer patients to the nearest government health facilities in case of pregnant women, children under five kilograms of weight and severe malaria cases. In addition, 121 laboratories and sub-centres have been established in remote areas to strengthen early diagnosis and prompt treatment (EDPT). LLINs are distributed in the community free of cost as one of the most important methods of preventing the transmission of malaria.

Various sensitisation and advocacy meetings are conducted among the different stakeholders of the community to make them aware of malaria symptoms and to engage them in the effort to identify patients, increase utilisation of LLIN and to create early care seeking behaviour. The stakeholders include local figures, religious leaders, headmen, karbaris, teachers, village doctors, pharmacists, private practitioners and hotel owners/ managers.

Since May 2007 to June 2014, a total of 3,067,663 cases of fever were examined nationally by RDT and/or microscopy, of which BRAC and its partner NGOs performed 1,822,086. Out of 318,649 confirmed malaria cases, 228,233 (72%) were treated at the community level in the same period. In addition, death due to malaria was reduced by 90 percent (15) in 2013 in comparison with the baseline year 2008 (154). Since the beginning of the programme, a total of 3,735,905 LLINs have been distributed among the beneficiaries in the malaria endemic areas.

3.4 how did global fund asemble through 2000s to combat tb, aids and malaria

 Global Fund  3.4 end tuberculosis, aids, malaria

this summary comes mainly from briefings jim kim gave at youth summits and the first change the world mooc during the first 18 months of his appointment to world bank by obama in 2012

any errors are mine alone chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc region MA Statistics DAMPT Csambridge

around 1987, 3 uniquely energetic graduates passionate about health service in world's poorest communities  came together in boston and formed pih.org - the only homegrown/youth=organised network which placed harvard medical students in poorest rural haiti and later nations like peru; two of these students graduated in anthropology and decided that franciscan values of servant leadership were what they wanted to apply; paul farmer had led explorations haiti the year after graduation with his friend wellesley graduate  ophelia dahl daughter of oxfords best selling author; jim kim was the other graduate studying anthropology of med at harvard the son of korean immigrants - life story at this world bank tedx

in boston the friends stayed with a franciscan monk originally from peru; jim kim in particular became energised abut ending tuberculosis there; 

by 2003 paul farmer had rightly become famous in books like mountains beyond mountains; 

jim kim was helping mobilise intellectually disruptive tactics including close the world bank- he connected  the most concerned stakeholders in poverty 3 worldwide health crises tb aids and malara and demanded a global fund which was perhaps the one thing that both clinton global and george busg agreed on by 2005; meanwhile kim discovered to his surprise that the worlds most effective end tb networks were brac's women in bangladesh he shared his knowledge with gates and soros who had asked farmer/kim would they help en tb in dissident russoa prisons if he soros funded that; so by 2005 the global fund was formally celebrated and while all of the above deserve congratulations it was abed-asian womens empowerment networks who had scaled the most effective tb models

you can see abed awarded gates global health prize ang both gates and soros viits tobangladesh villages 2005-6

its certainly true that each side gained from the collaboration - for example clintons and others helped: farmer build 2 world class teaching hospitals in haiti and rwands; jim kim was appointed to lead world bank in 2012; soros in helping launch brac usa 2007 talked of abed being just about the only ngo leader who scaled with the least, and all the digital wizards of banking for the poor including mpesa's nick hughes , bill gates, mit quadir/legatum, and abed to develop the world's most populous cashless bank for the poor www.bkash.com -

but would this have happened without the energy of youth's most determined health workers and movements empowering billion asian women?- over to you to debate

world bank, dhaka branch,  jan 2015 

The ‘science of delivery’, or bringing the right kinds of services effectively to the poor, is the key to eradicate extreme poverty, said Sir Fazle Hasan Abed, the founder and chairman of BRAC, the world’s largest NGO.

The under-five child mortality in Bangladesh has decreased from 180 deaths per 1,000 live births in the 1980s to 53 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2011. The child survival rate in Bangladesh has surpassed that in neighboring countries.

smail Ferdous/World Bank

While visiting the World Bank Bangladesh office, he shared how perfecting the science of delivery helps reduce poverty; saves lives; brings prosperity; and how one impact is linked with another.

In 1972 BRAC started working on integrated rural development in Bangladesh. The country had an alarmingly low child survival rate at the time. Diarrhea was among the leading causes of the death of children. BRAC took the lead in popularizing the Oral Rehydration Therapy (ORT) to prevent diarrhea. Bangladesh now has the world’s highest ORT usage rate. Thanks to ORT and the later success in child immunization, the under-five child mortality in Bangladesh has decreased from 180 deaths per 1,000 live births in the 1980s to 53 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2011. The child survival rate in Bangladesh has surpassed that in neighboring countries.

A mother needs boiled water, sugar and salt from her kitchen to prepare ORT. A simple solution, but the challenge was to reach the millions of mothers, teach them how to prepare the saline solution and ensure the proper feeding of sick children.

BRAC employed female health workers from the community to go door to door and teach mothers to prepare and administer ORT. The rural and often illiterate mother would need to remember 7 simple points of ORT.  The health workers used to mark their utensils to measure half a liter of water, adding a pinch of salt with the fingertips and a fistful of molasses, a substitute to sugar in villages.

“BRACs methodology always focuses on strong monitoring mechanism to measure the progress of any intervention and maintain quality and accountability,” says Sir Abed. BRAC representatives would randomly monitor 10 percent of households. Each health worker received 10 Takas ($.12) per household if the mother could remember the 7 points of ORT accurately.

Unfortunately, the first round of monitoring showed a disappointing 6 percent household usage rate.  BRAC realized that the health workers themselves did not believe in the intervention. BRAC trained the health workers to show how ORT works. The new found belief in the intervention increased the usage rate to 19%, but still far below making a meaningful impact nationally.

Further analysis showed that men felt undermined by not being adequately engaged. BRAC workers started to engage the fathers. To cut time and cost by half, workers started teaching mothers in groups instead of an one on one basis and monitoring the monitors.  Meetings were organized in markets, schools and mosques to explain the benefits of ORT. National TV and radio launched a campaign to popularize ORT.  Once the whole village was mobilized, the results were remarkable.

Sir Abed said, “It involved several incremental steps to deliver the desirable service to the poor. First, making the program effective; second, refining the intervention based on the trial and error to make it efficient; and third, a focus on robust monitoring and accountability mechanism allowing the scaling up of the intervention nationwide.

Citing examples of interlinked development impacts, Sir Abed highlighted that the fertility rate among Bangladeshi women declined during the same period. Bangladesh today has almost achieved a replacement level fertility rate of 2.2 children per women.

The experience shows that through efficient delivery, simple local solutions can bring positive changes in the lives of millions. And to do so, we need to identify effective and available avenues of delivery, easy ways of scaling up the initiative, learn from the failures and rectify. We learn, at each stage, vigilant monitoring, impact assessment, and quick redesigns to improve the intervention.

The delivery mechanism in ORT initiative reconciles with many projects within the Bank to reach out to the poorest of the society.  This experience  can be applied to bring services to millions of people worldwide for poverty reduction and human development.

Bangladesh has shown remarkable progress through simple solutions as ORT. These efforts could be replicated as a model in any development project world-wide,” remarked Sir Abed ending his knowledge sharing with staff in the Dhaka office.

 how and why did the new nation of bangladesh empower 90% of women to find their own partners to build community economies? 

and why/how did this new economic model network across a billion women 1972-2020?

a long answer to this question involves clicking through our 36 subsystems hu1.1-1.6 hu2.1-2.6 etc of abedmooc - 15 visits to bangladesh turned our notes into this pattern for you to click through if you choose - we have arranged 6 pieces for the first5 sdgs -poverty food health livelihood safe/ghappy community building 100% by/for all-  each from 1972 and with lower numbers representing first 25 years when a village meant no electricity, no communications with rest of nation other than person to person;

 or you can map back from now that bangladesh is desiigning leapfrog solutions often empowered by mobile phones and solar power - the last 6 pieces connect not just future of combating poverty but 2 more futures abed saw women as leading: growing middle class and going green as bangladesh plans to be 50% urban by 2050

the simplified answer - and please correct me if i get a detail wrong but note i am not interested in ideologies whether left right or from the moon! - i am a maths guy, i try and map piece by piece so that each builds each other

in most newly independent nations a powerful man and political party make choices like which foreign business to throw out and which to keep - this is not a simple question and is sometimes determined by bribes or better as a way of getting public funds possibly to serve all the people; often the new leader wants to serve the people but first must protect the nations borders by building an army and make some infrastructure decisions as well as choose if lands have all been legally distributed- there is so much to do that what doesnt get equal first attention is the rural most disconnected people from the capital's throne of power

-in bangladesh's case , the first 2 national leaders (one was assassinated) had to keep securing the borders from the war of independence- but there were hardly any business or citizens taxes - the best the government could do was start serving the 10% or urban peoples

so the rural peoples looked for partners- and by great good fortune: fazle as the nation's leading engineer- former regional ceo for shell oil - had started a pilot metavillage of 15000 homes, 100000 people whose homes had been flattened by war; mothers were dying of starvation, infants of dehydration ; he searched for solutions rest of world used, designed local microfranchises village mothers could turn into business- word of mouth spread- the same life saving solutions in the first metavillage were wanted by village mothers across the90% rural nation

fazle abed motivation was to serve -to end poverty, to raise life expectancy; indeed (BRA) Bangladesh Rural Advancement never sought to compete with the government just get on with doing empowered by village mothers

it happened that bangladesh had invented a new to the world health cure every tropical village wanted oral rehydration; unicef sent its people to understand how this work and show it to any village women - it happened by accident that of all the nations on the continent the chinese of 1972 had exactly the same famine and dehydration crises - and idea of women being as productive as men- the reason for women empowerment way have been different with one child per family half of all parents had to make sure girls were as producitve as boys; this started free knowhow swaps between bangladesh and chinese village networks - ultimately this is how a billion women collaborated across the asian continent ending the most extreme local poverty

as i say anything i write aims to be plain reporting with no ideolgical spin- this mooc aims to offer action learning the way it happened- nature has her own ways of valuing what truly works: in these cases womens networks were indeed largely guided by fitting in with nature which is why there could be at least partial lessons for anyone in the younger half of the world aiming to unite the first sustainability generation- 

that's up to you to interpret chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc region & sometimes Glasgow or an Asian country from which the world seems youth-motivated

six dimensional education "squared" for nation building and 1 billion women sustain our species!

 which of these dimensions interest you most?

4.1 adult-lifelong edu- this is where billion womens empowerment began in 1972- why women and infants were literally starving to death in villages- so almost everyone fazle abed hired for a skill a village woman could make a business put of - eg growing rice, tending for 6 families infants while other village mothers worked on agriculture, learning oral rehydration; ; some adults started asking could they train to be teachers of kids 6-10

4.2  classrooms with one village and 25 kids aged 6-11 took off in mid 1980s - 30000 skills were franchised- hapines, confidence, peer to peer montessori style was the culture

4.3 resources for designing edu for teens were much more constrined- what took off was peer to peer apprentice spaces for particular skills as well as scholarships for those who made the most of primary; the whole area of non-classroom secondary matters everywhere that there is a livelihood mismatch- for 15 yeqrs now we have estimated the world is short of nearly 100 million last mile health workers- covid may have shown thats an under-estimate; secondary girls apprentice clubs have proved particularly successful in clarifying what skiils teens most want; finding enough trainers has been relatively simple for brac in bangladesh since most brac co-workers recruited as trainers in villages- 

5.3 brac internet from 1996 was the first time brac could search for 2.0 partners - previously there was no point hiring trainers / attracting investors unless solutions worked in villages without electricity-now brac had both second Generation To support eg village daughters moving to cities as well as possibility of experimenting with solar and mobile in villages- the need was for brac university - now brac could offer deep learning: village research and connect university research around the world with 4.4 new uni (squared now alumni of abed could blend the 6 age groups of traditional real education with anything digitall connections with mother earth's urgent climate etc demands can offer

4.5 what new to the world masters of arts do you think abed chose first? early childhood education - can you think of reasons he valued this global innovation in addition to it being the one age group brac hadn't educationally served?

4.6 abed asked for his legacy to be a luminaries network- each luminary to bring a different piece of the jigsaw education is everything in developing peoples and nations

5.3 bracnet beyond einstein and moore's law: abed's law Sustainability=e*billionwomensquared

https://www.google.com/search?q=bracnet+1996

1996 BRACNET began second half of Abed's poverty alleviation by and for fenale empowerments - after 25 yeras of directly person to person networking solutions, now poorest asian women could value mobile and solar partners

Back In 1971 Bangladesh was born - 8th largest nation in population terms ; poorest; the peoples of the bay of bengal had drawn double short straw of colonisiation - by britain then (west) Pakistan; when people say 90% of the population was rural they meant without access to electricity grids; 

so the world of partnerships in women empowerment changed around 1996 when both solar and mobile partners came to bangladesh- what woukd brac do with opportunities to leap from designing village womens productive collaborations from the era of no electricity and co connectivity to designing collaboration sdg networks with tech support?======================

FIRST THE RACE FOR NATIONAL VALUE CHAIN LEADERSHIP - brac wanted to retain markets it had designed to maximise inclusion of poorest through village mothers microfranchises

update can you imagine running a nation leading business without any sort of telephone line - oddly that was what most businessmen experienced as recently as 1990 in both bangladesh and china- with very small per cent of business addresses having a phone- even if a businessman had a phone relatively little could be done with it- it was seizing this opportunity of mobile which enabled brac to scale 14 nationwide leading enterprises from mid 1990s - all designed around wholesaling to the poor the best quality lowest cost of items needed to run their microfranchises- although bangladesh remains a poor country as it has no superport world trade access- countries which never had nationwide outlets until mobile /digital have uniquely common entrepreneurial revolutions that western countries with mature phone lines and brick intensive corporate assets cant fully imagine- so it turns out that western partners of brac internet get insights into digital asia and continental development that they might never otherwise see. This has particular relevance to questions like how deeply diverse is your ai model - and will you ever lead you sectirs climate innovations
