Latent TB Infection (LTBI) Resources

New from California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Tuberculosis Control Branch (TBCB)
Preventing TB in Your Clinical Setting- A Practical Guidebook

Staff from the TB Free California initiative, a project of the California Department of Public Health, produced this Guidebook to share information with primary care clinics and other partners who endeavor to improve TB prevention among their patients. The authors’ intentions are to assist clinics to scale-up and improve their latent TB infection (LTBI) programmatic and care activities as well as to engage with their community-based partners for support. These efforts will result in successful TB prevention outcomes, ultimately contributing to the elimination of TB in California.

Adobe Acrobat is the recommended application for viewing the Guidebook and its web features. Acrobat Reader can be downloaded for free at: https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/pdf-reader.html.
