Diagnostic yield of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) by sputum induction (SI) at first point of contact with health services, conducted in all patients with suspected TB regardless of ability to expectorate spontaneously, has not been evaluated. We compared diagnostic yield of SI to routine sputum collection in a South-African community setting. Ambulatory patients with suspected TB provided a ‘spot’ expectorated sputum sample; an SI sample by hypertonic (5%) saline nebulization; and early morning expectorated sputum sample. Diagnostic yield of sputum smear microscopy and liquid culture (denominator all subjects with any positive Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture), and time-to-positivity of culture were compared between SI and expectorated samples. 555 subjects completed the SI procedure, of whom 132 (24%) were HIV-infected. One-hundred-twenty-nine samples (23%) were M. tuberculosis culture positive. Time-to-positivity of MGIT culture was shorter for SI (median difference 2 days, p=0·63), and for early morning expectorated sputum (median difference 2 days, p=0·02), compared to spot expectorated sputum. However, there was no difference in culture-positive diagnostic yield between SI and spot expectorated sputum (difference +0.7%; CI −7.0 to +8.5%, p=0·82), or SI and early morning expectorated sputum (difference +4.7%; CI −3.2 to +12.5%, p=0·20) for all subjects; or for HIV-infected subjects. SI reduces time to positive M. tuberculosis culture, but does not increase the rate of positive culture, compared to routine expectorated sputum collection. SI cannot be recommended as the routine collection method at first contact among ambulatory patients with suspected TB in high burden communities.
