Digital Psychosocial Interventions on Stigma and Health Outcomes in TB Patients

This study addresses the shortcomings of routine clinical management for tuberculosis (TB) patients by proposing psychosocial interventions targeting stigma, while investigating the current status of stigma, psychological issues, medication adherence, and drug resistance among tuberculosis patients. It analyzes the underlying mechanisms, integrates online mindfulness courses, digital cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and human-machine interactive dialogue modules to develop a digital psychosocial intervention platform. Through a randomized controlled trial, the study validates the impact of the platform on stigma and health outcomes among tuberculosis patients in China. Ultimately, the research aims to formulate a scalable digital psychosocial intervention technical solution, providing evidence-based support for optimizing China's comprehensive tuberculosis prevention and control model.
