O J Daniel1.   

Abstract

The study evaluated the effect of implementing the directly observed treatment (DOT) programme for the treatment of TB in a teaching hospital setting in Nigeria. A significant increase in treatment completion rate and reduction in mortality was observed. The expansion of the DOT programme is desirable to stem the increasing TB epidemic in the country.
