Claire Calderwood is a clinician and researcher at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and the Zimbabwe Health Research Unit working on multimorbidity and person-centred tuberculosis screening in households affected by tuberculosis in East and Southern Africa[4]. Her research focuses on the fact that traditional approaches to tuberculosis screening do not take into account pre-existing health risks in affected households[4]. Calderwood suggests reconceptualizing tuberculosis screening as an opportunity to provide a package of services tailored to the needs of households affected by tuberculosis that would address multiple health and social problems[6]. A global consensus of tuberculosis experts, achieved in a modified Delphi process with 324 participants from 68 countries, confirms the high value of health service integration[2]. Almost all panelists (>99%) agreed that people with tuberculosis should be routinely screened for other relevant diseases, but only 69% considered it appropriate even for household contacts[2]. This person- and rights-centred approach could support progress towards universal health coverage and benefit communities and health systems[6].
