KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa a predominantly rural province with high burdens of TB, MDR-TB and HIV infection. To determine the most effective model of care by comparing MDR-TB treatment outcomes at community-based sites with traditional care at a central, specialised hospital. A non-randomised observational prospective cohort study comparing community-based and centralised care. Patients at community-based sites were closer to home, had easier access to care and home-based care was available from treatment initiation. Four community-based sites treated 736 patients, while 813 were treated at the centralised hospital (a total of 1549 patients). Overall, 75% were HIV co-infected (community: 76% vs. hospitalised: 73%, p=0.45) and 86% received antiretroviral therapy (community: 91% vs. hospitalised: 82%, p=0.22). In multivariate analysis MDR-TB patients were more likely to have a successful treatment outcome if they were treated at a community-based site (adjusted OR=1.43, p=0.01). However, there was heterogeneity in outcomes at the four community-based sites, with Site 1 demonstrating that home-based care was associated with increased treatment success of 72% compared with success of between 52 - 60% at the other three sites. Community-based care for patients with MDR-TB was more effective than care in a central, specialised hospital. Home-based care further increased treatment success.
