Management of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Pregnant and Peripartum People: A FIELD GUIDE

Pregnant people are an under-served and complex population when it comes to drugresistant tuberculosis (DR-TB). The complexity of pregnancy and DR-TB extends far beyond their physical susceptibility to DR-TB and includes risks for: receiving sub-standard care; experiencing stigma and discrimination; being separated from their children; and facing tremendous suffering due to a lack of compassionate counseling. The goal of this field handbook is to develop communities of service and promote best practices in the care of pregnant people with DR-TB throughout all phases of their pregnancies and in the peripartum period.
