    Abstract

    Background: Among individuals with HIV, the most prevalent opportunistic illness is Tuberculosis (TB). TB bacilli is detected by a CBNNAT [cartridge-based nucleic acid amplification test]. The most significant obstacle to the worldwide control of tuberculosis bacteria is still the accuracy of tuberculosis diagnosis. For diagnosis of tuberculosis, Direct sputum smear microscopy is used. To diagnose tuberculosis, The Revised National Tuberculosis Control Program (RNTCP) uses the Cartridge-Based Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (CBNAAT). The current study aims to compare the accuracy of diagnosis between CBNNAT and Sputum microscopy for pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Material & Methods: This prospective study was conducted between July 1, 2022, and May 31, 2023, among patients of HIV with suspicion of pulmonary TB who visited the General Medicine department at the National Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, NIMS University, Jaipur.
