Activation of Department-wide TB Response Plan 11 VIII. Deactivation of Plan 11 Appendix A-TB Response Report 2 INTRODUCTION Purpose of the Tuberculosis (TB) Response Plan The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) TB Program is committed to providing treatment and control of TB in order to protect the public health. The purpose of this plan is to ensure comprehensive and prompt response to exceptional TB circumstances, especially in those areas of the state with insufficient staffing, funding, or expertise to respond quickly without assistance. The plan also provides for tracking and reporting of TB issues. Defining "Exceptional Circumstance" Requiring Activation of TB Response Plan The principle function of the CDPHE TB Program is to support local efforts to discover, interrupt, and prevent TB transmission. Because of the low incidence of TB in Colorado—fewer than 3.5 cases per 100,000—the public-health apparatus for finding TB and for investigating contacts has been reduced to a minimum in many parts of the state. The investigation of a single case in some counties can quickly exhaust available resources, resulting in "an urgent need for assistance or relief" Thus, the definition of an"exceptional TB circumstance" in Colorado depends on the detection of active TB or latent TB infections that meet one or more of the following criteria: • Due to the setting, the risk level of the population involved, or the number of cases, active TB or latent TB infections,pose a serious risk of further TB transmission. • The capacity of a local public health agency is overwhelmed by the scope of the comprehensive response necessary to "ascertain the existence of all cases of TB in the infectious stages and to ascertain the sources of such infections" (C.R.S. 24-4-506). • The local health authority deems, in consultation with CDPHE, that activation of the response plan would be in the best interest of the public. Examples of exceptional TB circumstances that may prompt activation of the TB Response Plan: • A patient with infectious TB is suspected or known to have Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to isoniazid and rifampin(multidrug-resistant TB/MDR TB). • Persons with HIV infection or other immune-compromising conditions are suspected or known to be exposed to a case of infectious TB. • A child five years of age or less with confirmed TB for which a source of infection is not discovered after source investigation. • An increase in the number of cases over time or in a particular area is considered significant by a local public health worker or by CDPHE personnel. • A genotype cluster is considered to indicate ongoing transmission. • Extensive TB transmission is confirmed or suspected. These situations may involve workplaces, schools, unconventional social networks, or other circumstances in which screening for TB disease and infection involves large numbers of people or in which multiple cases are suspected. • A TB case generates a great deal of public interest or political pressure. 3 THE TB RESPONSE TEAM All initial TB Response activities are the responsibility of TB Program staff, in collaboration with local public health authorities. Other Disease Control and Environmental Epidemiology Division (DCEED) staff may be called upon at the discretion of the Director to assist or provide additional support to the TB Response Team or local public health agencies. The purpose of the TB Response Team is to ensure a comprehensive and prompt response to exceptional TB circumstances, especially in those areas of the state with insufficient staffing, funding, or expertise.

Duties may include assistance with procuring additional funding resources, setting up emergency purchase orders, assisting local public health agencies with contact investigations, patient interviews, translation/interpretation for persons with limited English proficiency, medication or specimen transport, form completion, etc. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Staff Assistance may be requested from CDC such as in the event of extensive, confirmed or suspect TB transmission involving workplaces, schools, unconventional social networks, or other circumstances in which screening for TB disease and infection involves large numbers of people or in which multiple cases are suspected. The Epidemiology Intelligence Surveillance (EIS) Officer or other designated CDC health advisors may be needed to provide further consultation and assistance. ACTIVATION OF TB RESPONSE PLAN CDPHE TB Program staff will review information as reported from an outside source(after review by local public health authorities) or as reported directly by local public health authorities. The TB Program staff will then meet to evaluate the suspected cluster or reported crisis to determine if the event meets the"exceptional TB circumstance"criteria specified above. If so, the CDPHE TB Program staff, in consultation with DCEED Director, local public health authorities, and other TB experts (as needed),will make a final determination of"exceptional TB circumstance"status and the TB Response Plan will be activated. How the TB Response Team Learns of Exceptional TB Circumstances The TB Program conducts ongoing surveillance of reported TB cases. Analysis of routine TB surveillance data and discussions at weekly case management meetings may reveal a suspected cluster or a situation that poses a serious risk of further TB transmission. Additionally, the local public health agency may identify an urgent need for assistance or relief and request assistance from the TB Response Team. When an exceptional TB circumstance is discovered or reported to the TB Program, a"TB Response Report" (Appendix A) will be completed by the person receiving the information. The report will be given immediately to the TB Response Team Leader for further review. Additional information may need to be obtained from the local public health agency staff to assist with evaluation of the TB situation. Communications with the local public health agency staff will be initiated by the TB Response Team Leader, in collaboration with the DCEED Director. TB Response Team Evaluates Exceptional TB Circumstances The Team Leader will inform the TB Response Team of an exceptional TB circumstance. Details regarding the situation will be shared with TB Response Team members and reviewed to 6 determine whether it meets the definition of an exceptional TB circumstance. If so, the TB Response Team will initiate a request for activation of the TB Response Plan. Declaration of a TB Response Plan Activation The DCEED Director will be responsible for declaring the need to activate the TB Response Plan as appropriate. Depending upon the type of response needed, duties will be assigned consistent with predetermined responsibilities of the team. Internal and External Communications The DCEED Director will be responsible for informing the CMO (303) 692-2662 and the Director of Office of Communications (303) 692-2013 of new or updated information, as appropriate. The Office of Communications will be responsible for preparing news articles and for arranging TV interviews, radio interviews, and other public announcements. The TB Response Team members may be asked to assist by providing general information as requested. Once the plan is activated, the TB Response Team will meet on a regularly scheduled basis, at a frequency determined at the initial evaluation meeting, in order to maintain internal communications with regard to the status of all TB response activities. The TB Response Team Leader will be responsible for ensuring that meeting notices, locations and times are distributed to all team members, with assistance by TB Response Team support personnel. Each team member will have an opportunity at each meeting to report on his/her progress, new findings, or to ask questions. Each TB circumstance will be evaluated by the TB Response Team on a case-by-case basis to determine whether a special "hotline"should be activated at CDPHE to enhance external customer communications. A hotline can be used to provide pre-recorded information and/or serve as a devoted telephone line for callers seeking information specific to an exceptional TB circumstance. If it is determined that a hotline is needed, the DCEED Director will obtain approval for the hotline and assist in developing a pre-recorded telephone message. The Telecommunications Manager at (303) 692-2117 can assist in setting up a local telephone line in approximately 30 minutes or a wide area telephone system (WATS) line in two days. Local telephone lines include: • "Call-in line"primarily used for short,pre-recorded messages. Customers can leave a voicemail message if they have further questions. • "Call box" for longer,pre-recorded messages and a telephone tree that directs the caller to other extensions for additional information. A call box can also track the number of calls made to that number. The hotline pre-recorded message will be reviewed at least weekly by TB Response Team and revised/updated as needed. TB Response Team members will maintain open communications with public health agencies and private providers, in collaboration with the DCEED Director. This includes routine telephone consultation or conference call on an "as-needed"basis. All information received by the TB Program from outside sources, should be channeled through local health agencies. 7 The Team Leader will discuss exceptional TB circumstances with the TB Elimination Cooperative Agreement Project Officer at CDC, Division of TB Elimination (404) 639-8126. The TB Response Team will provide recommendations with regard to guidance or assistance needed by CDC and relay these requests to the TB Response Team Leader. RESPONSES OF TB RESPONSE TEAM TB Responses Each exceptional TB circumstance must be individually evaluated to determine the scope of assistance needed by the TB Response Team. Not every response will require the same actions. Possible responses include: • Monitor events through the Team Leader and Public Health Nurse Consultant • Request additional information from the local agency through the Team Leader or designee • Designate a team member to provide telephone consultation to the agency involved • Establish authority, in collaboration with local public health agencies, for implementing interventions and strategic programmatic changes (see "Responsibilities of Local Public Health Agency") • Provide prompt internal and external communications to the extent needed in each situation • Provide weekly TB epidemiological analysis reports • Ensure availability of appropriate laboratory testing, including DNA fingerprinting and specimen transport, for purposes of prompt diagnosis and epidemiological investigation • Provide documentation and written reports with regard to TB Response Team activities as needed and as requested by DCEED Director, or CDPHE senior management • Provide onsite assistance and consultation to the local public health agency, as resources allow. This includes, but is not limited to, assigning one or more members of the TB Response Team to investigate contacts, conduct intensified surveillance, collect and/or transport specimens, apply TB skin tests, assist with implementing appropriate engineering controls, occupational hazard evaluation, etc. • Provide public speaker(s) to address affected citizens' groups (e.g. parents, employees, employers, schools, organizations) • Assist local public health agencies arrange for resources needed at the local level (e.g. personal protection supplies, interpreters, translated patient education materials, quarantine facilities, laboratory resources,packaging and distribution of mass drug orders) as resources allow • Request emergency supplemental funding from CDC or attempt to find additional funding resources needed for TB response activities • Other actions as recommended by CDC • No further action All activities will be conducted in compliance with state statues (C.R.S. 25-4-501-513) and may require additional assistance from other DCEED staff. If so, the DCEED Director will authorize specific staff and duties needed for the TB response. 8 Other persons involved in the TB response (e.g. Epidemiology Intelligence Surveillance (EIS) Officer, if one is available at CDPHE) may be included in all TB Response Team meetings and activities. Other Responsibilities The TB Response Team will review and update the TB Response Plan on an annual basis and update/revise as needed. Other DCEED staff maybe required to provide TB response assistance and will receive training as needed. LOCAL PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCY RESPONSIBILITIES Establish Authority It is the responsibility of the CMO and local public health agencies in Colorado to conduct activities in order to discover, interrupt, and prevent TB transmission in their counties, through contractual agreements with the TB Program at CDPHE. In the event of an exceptional TB circumstance,however, authority for local TB control efforts must be established, based on availability and ability of the local resources to implement interventions and strategic programmatic changes needed to interrupt TB transmission. Such decisions will be made in collaboration with local public health authorities. Authority may remain solely with the local public health agency, other persons designated to direct activities at the local level (e.g. EIS Officer), or to a member of the TB Response Team. All counties in Colorado have designated persons who should be contacted in the event of an exceptional TB circumstance. Such persons have agreed to be responsible for sharing information to others in their agencies or communities, as appropriate. Other Responsibilities Local Public Health Agencies involved with an exceptional TB circumstance can assist the TB Response Team by: • Building consensus with state and other TB control advisors regarding investigative strategy • Establishing accountable systems of communication, evaluation, response and tracking of TB cases • Notifying appropriate local officials • Providing a list of available personnel and their skills • Providing a list of available quarantine resources if needed, including a list and location of negative air flow rooms available in the county • Designating one person to communicate with TB Response Team Leader on an agreed-upon schedule, in coordination with other media relations • Adjusting investigation strategies based on new information obtained during TB response efforts • Designating a person to communicate with local media relations • Recommending the type of written publications and reports needed to assist them in TB response efforts • Additional assistance offered by local public health agency 9 CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION(CDC) NOTIFICATION/REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE Indications for CDPHE to Notify CDC CDC requests the following instances of TB transmission be reported: 1. Infectious source patient with high-risk exposures and there is at least one of the following circumstances: a. The source patient is suspected or known to have Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to isoniazid and/or rifampin,with or without resistance to other drugs. b. The exposure involves contacts with HIV infection or other immune-compromising condition. c. The exposure involves contacts in high-risk settings. 2. A child five years of age or less with confirmed TB for which a source of infection is not discovered after source investigation. 3. A cluster of cases in place and time. In one or more counties in a state over a period of approximately six months, compared to the previous equal time span, any increase in the number of cases that is considered significant by the TB Program or by the Division of TB Elimination (DTBE)personnel. 4. A genotype cluster considered to exhibit ongoing transmission. 5. Situations for which extensive TB transmission is confirmed or suspected. These situations may involve workplaces, schools,unconventional social networks, or other circumstances in which screening for TB disease and infection involves large numbers of people or in which multiple cases are suspected. 6. Instances in which transmission is suspected or confirmed among patients in multiple states. In this circumstance, an infectious source patient has exposed persons in multiple states, or transmission has been discovered among specific members of a group that resides or travels to multiple states, such as homeless persons who visit shelters in multiple states. 7. Instances in which false-positive AFB smears or cultures are suspected. False-positive AFB smears or cultures may be responsible for misdiagnosis of TB, and unnecessary tests, treatment, and toxicities for patients. Most false-positive AFB smears or cultures are based on laboratory cross-contamination,but may also be due to clerical errors and mislabeling. How to Report to and Request Assistance from CDC Specific instances of TB transmission specified above should be reported to the TB Cooperative Agreement Grant Program Consultant at CDC, Division of TB Elimination--DTBE (404) 639- 10 8126. The TB Response Team Leader will work with the TB Program Manager in reporting to CDC. The CDC Program Consultant can provide procedures for requesting assistance. ACTIVATION OF DEPARTMENT-WIDE EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN If the TB response requires additional assistance beyond the scope of TB Response Team and CDC, a request for assistance should be forwarded through the CDPHE Emergency Response Plan. This request for assistance must be initiated and approved by the DCEED Director through the CMO. Careful consideration must be given to leadership, authority and coordination of all TB response activities when assistance at this level is needed. DE-ACTIVATION OF TB RESPONSE PLAN TB Response Plan de-activation procedures will be conducted by the TB Response Team when the situation no longer supports the need for intensified TB response activities. These procedures include: 1. Debriefing--TB Response Team meeting to review all activities and outcomes related to the specific TB response 2. Change of Command --If the TB response required modification of authority, leadership, or responsibilities during the investigation, a change will be made to restore local public health agency responsibilities, as previously conducted. 3. Exit Interview--TB Response Team will conduct an exit interview with the local public health agency and others involved in the TB response to review response activities and outcomes and collect any additional information with regard to the response. 4. Evaluation of Results --TB Response Team and others, as appropriate, will conduct an evaluation of activities and outcomes related to the TB response. Evaluation will include identification of areas of improvement as well as areas of success. This information will be used to direct future TB responses and changes in procedures, if needed. 5. Final Report --TB Response Team Leader will prepare a final written report, as appropriate, with regard to the TB response (including all documents related to the TB response such as correspondence,publications, summary reports, final response evaluations, etc.)with the assistance from the TB Program Nurse Consultant and TB Program Manager/Surveillance Coordinator. The final report will be approved by the DCEED Director prior to distribution. 6. Long-term follow-up of contacts--The local public health agency or their designee will follow contacts identified during the TB response. Information will be reported to the Contact Investigation Coordinator initially and at the completion of follow-up (may be several months after initial response). Contact follow-up information will be added to the final report. 11 Appendix A TUBERCULOSIS RESPONSE REPORT Initial Report Information Date of Report: Report Source: ❑ Epidemiological TB Data Analysis ❑ TB Case Management Review ❑ Local Public Health Agency/Other State or Federal Agency: Agency Name Contact Phone Number ❑ Other: (specify and include phone numbers if applicable) Nature and Summary of Report (note if any TB cases are drug-resistant,HIV-infected, in congregate settings, or foreign-born and/or if there is extensive transmission, involves a public figure or is a high-profile case): Clinical findings of case(s): (include symptoms and chest x-ray results, if known) Laboratory Results: Evidence of ongoing transmission?
