Abstract

This application, created by the WMA and the New Jersey Medical School Global Tuberculosis Institute, gives physicians the flexibility to access the course material at any time, even when they are discussing treatment options with their patients. The application was developed in collaboration with the World Health Organization with financial support from the Eli Lilly MDR-TB partnership. The application contains the eight training modules which comprise the WMA's course on MDR-TB. It is intended as an introduction to MDR-TB management and is consistent with the principles of the WHO Stop TB Strategy.
