Abstract: ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of the new tuberculosis treatment management model pilot in universities of Tianjin, and to lay a good foundation for future spread to all universities of Tianjin. MethodsThe TB patients in four pilot unversities were managed with new model and the TB patients in other universities were managed with DOTS in TB control institutions, the effectiveness of these two models were compared. ResultsRegular treatment rate, regular sputum examination rate, treatment completion rate of sputum smear negative and systematic management rate were 90.9%, 89.1%, 95.8% and 87.3% respectively, which were much more than the others in other universities (71.6%, 70.3%, 81.0% and 66.2%). There were statistically significant differences between two groups（P<0.05）.The cure rate of sputum smear positive cases was 85.7%, which was higher than 81.8% of the compared group, but there was no statistical significant difference（P>0.05）. ConclusionsThe new tuberculosis treatment management model was successfully implemented in the four pilot universities. It is valuable to promote in all universities of Tianjin.
