Unit of Measurement: Per 100,000 population

This table provides metadata for the actual indicator available from Rwanda statistics closest to the corresponding global SDG indicator. Please note that even when the global SDG indicator is fully available from Rwandan statistics, this table should be consulted for information on national methodology and other Rwandan-specific metadata information.

Indicator available

Tuberculosis incidence per 100,000 population
Indicator description

This indicator measures the number of new tuberculosis (TB) cases arising in a given year per 100,000 population.
Geographical coverage

Rwanda
Unit of measurement

Per 100,000 population
Definitions

Tuberculosis incidence is defined as the number of new and relapse TB cases per 100,000 population.
Calculations

(Number of new and relapse TB cases / Total population ) * 100,000
Other information

Estimates of TB incidence are produced through a consultative and analytical process led by the World Health Organization (WHO) and are published annually. These estimates are based on annual case notifications, assessments of the quality and coverage of TB notification data, national surveys of the prevalence of TB disease and information from death (vital) registration systems.
Comments and limitations

More information on TB is available in the World Health Organization’s annual Global Tuberculosis Reports and the Rwanda Biomedical Center’s annual TB Reports.
