| Abstract | This data set on the conventional and molecular Methods for the Diagnosis of Smear Negative Pulmonary TB and Concordance of Empirical TB Diagnosis with Culture Assay was conducted by using cross-sectional study design on smear negative TB presumptive and age greater or equal to 15 patients referred to St. Peter’s TB Specialized Hospital from December 2014 to June 2015. Socio-demographic and clinical data were collected using the data collection form designed for the study purpose. The data collection form was designed to capture patient demographic dataincluding age and sex, HIV status, signs and symptoms, chest X-ray findings and empirical TB treatment initiations. Spot-Moring-spot sputum was collected using sterile falcon tubes for routine diagnostic purpose. Direct ZN examination was done on Spot-Moring-spot sputum at St. Peter’s TB Specialized Hospital. The morning sputum was used for culture (LJ and MGIT), TB-LAMP, Xpert MTB/RIF assay, fluorescent microscopy examination and sputum quality was assessed. Data were captured and analyzed using SPSS |
