The EHAI Clinical Laboratory Department in conjunction with the IHVN Clinical Laboratory Department (TB unit) carried out an installation of a GeneXpert machine and onsite training on GeneXpert MTB/RIF Technology for Laboratory Staff and Basic Programmatic Management of TB/DR TB at the Federal Teaching Hospital Ido-Ekiti, Ekiti State. This took place between the 9th and 12th of March 2015. Facilitators at the training include the Program Manager (Lab TB Unit) IHVN Abuja, representative from the National TB/Leprosy Control Program and a Biotech Engineer from IHVN Abuja.
Participants of the training were introduced to the Genexpert MTB/RIF system, as well as the following module topics during the training:
