Hasta el a\u00f1o 2015 era administrada por la Organizaci\u00f3n Mundial de la Salud (OMS), actualmente la Oficina de las Naciones Unidas de Servicios para Proyectos es el organismo encargado. Stop TB Partnership, es una iniciativa para la eliminaci\u00f3n de la tuberculosis que cuenta con una visi\u00f3n con enfoque en Salud Digital. Cuentan con un centro de tecnolog\u00eda especializado para ello ya que la alianza considera que las tecnolog\u00edas sanitarias en salud cuentan con el potencial para transformar los sistemas sanitarios y cambiar la vida de aquellas personas afectadas por tuberculosis. \u201cStop TB Partnership ha estado a la vanguardia en la promoci\u00f3n, el abastecimiento, la evaluaci\u00f3n y la introducci\u00f3n de tecnolog\u00edas de salud digital durante los \u00faltimos siete a\u00f1os y, durante COVID-19, ha estado trabajando en estrecha colaboraci\u00f3n con socios globales y nacionales para escalar estas soluciones y para mitigar las interrupciones en los servicios rutinarios de tuberculosis,\u201d mencionan en su sitio oficial. El Centro de Tecnolog\u00eda de Salud Digital o Digital Health Hub (DHT), tiene como objetivo terminar con la tuberculosis para el 2030, a trav\u00e9s de evidencia sustentable y tecnolog\u00edas basadas en el empoderamiento de comunidades marginadas. El DHT ha adoptado diferentes iniciativas y estrategias de Salud Digital para cumplir con sus metas y objetivos a corto, mediano y largo plazo: Generar y ampliar la informaci\u00f3n, la evidencia, el conocimiento y la experiencia del uso apropiado de las tecnolog\u00edas de salud digital. Sentar las bases necesarias en los pa\u00edses afectados por la tuberculosis para la ampliaci\u00f3n \u00f3ptima, el acceso equitativo y el uso apropiado de las tecnolog\u00edas sanitarias digitales. Crear un espacio entre los socios implementadores de programas del pa\u00eds y las comunidades afectadas por la tuberculosis y la sociedad civil para aprender sobre tecnolog\u00edas de salud digital basadas en evidencia para la respuesta a la tuberculosis y brindar apoyo t\u00e9cnico y de implementaci\u00f3n para implementar y ampliar estas herramientas. Catalizar el desarrollo de tecnolog\u00edas sanitarias digitales innovadoras proporcionando apoyo a peque\u00f1as y medianas empresas y nuevas empresas, en particular de los pa\u00edses afectados por la tuberculosis. \u00a0 Entre sus \u00e1reas de acci\u00f3n ya se encuentran trabajando en software de lectura asistido por computadora que se basa en Inteligencia Artificial, el cual busca detectar signos radiol\u00f3gicos relacionados a tuberculosis a trav\u00e9s de radiograf\u00edas de t\u00f3rax y as\u00ed mejorar la capacidad de diagn\u00f3stico. Tambi\u00e9n han comenzado a aplicar herramientas de monitoreo que son manejadas por comunidades afectadas por esta enfermedad, se trata de atenci\u00f3n centrada en personas y basado en el respeto de derechos y responsabilidad social de la comunidad. Adem\u00e1s, han implementado soluciones de conectividad para el intercambio r\u00e1pido de resultados de pruebas de diagn\u00f3stico y dar un tratamiento adecuado a los pacientes. Por \u00faltimo, resaltan la importancia de la aplicaci\u00f3n de tecnolog\u00edas de Salud Digital en el contexto actual de la pandemia por COVID-19: &#8220;A medida que la pandemia de COVID-19 se propaga a nivel mundial, la interrupci\u00f3n de los servicios de salud de rutina y la necesidad de distanciamiento social hacen que sea particularmente dif\u00edcil para los programas de tuberculosis realizar operaciones de rutina y brindar la atenci\u00f3n necesaria a las personas y comunidades afectadas por la tuberculosis. Como tal, los programas de TB deben depender de opciones alternativas, incluidas las tecnolog\u00edas de salud digitales, para llevar los servicios de TB requeridos a las personas y comunidades afectadas por la TB&#8221;.
