Abstract

Increasing complexity of tuberculosis (TB) is one of the causes that TB is still the leading cause of death by an infectious disease. Among the complicating factors are increasing drug resistance and comorbidities. Patient-centred care, and even more individualised treatment, would be the way forward. The different aspects of patient-centred care model, including medical, social and supportive care are discussed.
