Abstract: The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) faces a high tuberculosis (TB) incidence and challenges in TB management and elimination. Reliable, timely, and complete data on TB cases, drug resistance, and outcomes are key to improving and adapting TB elimination efforts to the needs of affected areas. To assess the quality of TB data and the performance of reporting systems in the country, the Tuberculosis Data, Impact Assessment and Communications Hub (TB DIAH) project conducted a TB Data Quality Review (DQR) with the objectives of assessing the components and functionality of the TB information system to generate high-quality TB data and reviewing and validating indicator data for selected TB indicators for a specific reporting period.
