National PMDT Scale-up Plan - India - 2011-12 - TBC India

8. National PMDT Scale up Plan Outputs
National Scale up Plan for Programmatic Management of DR TB 2011 - 2012
The key outputs of the National PMDT Scale up Plan that was compiled by stitching together the scale
up micro-plan of all 35 states are as follows:
8.1. National Laboratory Scale up by Technology
It is planned to have 43 C-DST labs established with enhanced capacity including rapid diagnosis through
LPA and liquid culture in 33 labs. Over and above this, there are ~ 23 Private / Medical Collages / ICMR
laboratories identified by the states to engage with for purchase of laboratory services after these have
been accredited under RNTCP. The cumulative national accreditation of plan of all the listed laboratories
by technology viz. Solid C-DST (LJ), Liquid C-DST (MGIT) and LPA are is portrayed in the figure below:

Although the cumulative laboratory capacity exceeded the enrollment plan of MDR TB suspect’s at the
national level over the next 2 years as seen in figure 3 & 4, there are variations by states (Annexure 9).
