Initial Monitoring for smear conversion
Frequency vEvery 2 weeks after week 2 of therapy Number of specimens v1 sample – Collection observed by health care worker

Monitoring for imminent smear conversion
Frequency v Every few days to weekly Number of specimens v Total of 3 samples on three different days. v Once first negative smear is determined during periodic monitoring for conversion, collect 2 additional samples – At least one should be observed by health care worker
