Chandigarh, 2nd Feb 2024.In a proactive move towards achieving a Tuberculosis-free Chandigarh, the Health Department of the Chandigarh Administration, under the leadership of Dr. Varinder Nagpal, Acting Director Health Services, initiated the Active Case Finding (ACF) campaign for Tuberculosis today. Dr. Nagpal, along with senior officers, flagged off teams dedicated to conducting a comprehensive house-to-house survey in the Rehabilitation Colony, Dhanas.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The primary objective of these teams is to identify presumptive TB cases within the community. They will collect on-the-spot sputum samples for free TB testing, and a free hand-holding X-ray facility will be provided at the Health and Wellness Centre in Rehabilitation Colony, Dhanas during the ACF survey. Dr. Rajesh Kumar, State TB Officer, highlighted that individuals diagnosed as positive cases during the survey will promptly be initiated on free treatment after completing all necessary tests. This strategic approach aims to ensure early detection, thereby breaking the chain of infection.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u00a0The ACF survey commenced on 31st January 2024 and will extend over fifteen days, covering the entire Rehabilitation Colony in Dhanas. Twenty teams, comprising 40 trained volunteers, will diligently conduct the survey to encompass the entire population of the area. Present at the launch were Dr. Charru Singla, NO-NHM, Dr. Rajesh Kumar, State TB Officer, and Dr. Vandana Mohan, DFWO, contributing their expertise and support to this crucial public health initiative.<\/div>\n
