ABSTRACT

One of the most prevalent opportunistic illnesses among Human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) positive people is tuberculosis. Numerous studies have demonstrated that HIV/Acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS) is a significant public health issue in India. The World health organization(WHO) advised using Cartridge based nucleic acid amplification test (CBNAAT) in conjunction with Rifampicin resistance to identify pulmonary tuberculosis (TB).This cross-sectional research had 160 patients who were older than 15 years. The bulk of the patients, or 109 (68.12%), were in the middle age range of 26 to 45 years, with 135 (84.66%) of them being from rural areas. Low education status persons (primary and high school, 35% and 33.75% respectively) constitute the demographic that is most frequently impacted; nevertheless, among females, uneducated groups are more frequently afflicted. The shift in the distribution of HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis co- infection patients in India's Vindhya Region implies that the HIV/TB co-infection epidemic is spreading. CBNAAT reduces TB detection time while increasing sensitivity and positivity in HIV and TB co- infection. There is an urgent need for intervention to reduce dangerous sexual behaviors.
