| As stated bacteriological yield of this test has yet not been established so this research could indeed explore and establish the potential of Pediatric string test to become a routine sample collection test for diagnosis of Pediatric tuberculosis in the Pediatric age group. Hence representing a significant step forward to diagnose and rapidly detect Pediatric tuberculosis. Furthermore, exploration of feasibility of Pediatric string test for sample collection in the primary health center and secondary health center will help in accurate assessment of burden of Pediatric tuberculosis in India and proper treatment will help in reducing the child morbidity and mortalityTimepoint: Preparatory Phase: 1 month Data Collection: 10 months Result and Analysis: 1 months Submission of report: In 12th month | — |
