The London Borough of Newham, UK, piloted a novel screening and treatment TBI programme for recent migrants. This was situated entirely within primary care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aims to highlight key enablers and barriers to delivering a TBI programme in primary care. Views of health care professionals and relevant stakeholders were sought through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Perspectives from 43 health care professionals are included. A perceived \u2018good relationship\u2019 between patients and health care professionals was the most commonly cited enablers across groups, followed by education and training of service providers. Physicians reported time constraints as a common barrier, whereas pharmacists were more likely to identify low levels of patient knowledge surrounding TBI as a barrier to engagement. Enablers identified by stakeholders included effective communication between stakeholders and training of service providers. Aggregate data collection and monitoring was considered a significant enabler, as was patient education by health care professionals and novel educational tools.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Community-based TBI programmes can be successful. Key enablers include TBI-specific training with communities and amongst health care professionals, collaboration between health care professionals and stakeholders, and aggregate data monitoring.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.5588\/pha.25.0041","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,18]],"date-time":"2026-03-18T16:09:03Z","timestamp":1773850143000},"page":"8-14","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Barriers and enablers of TB infection screening and treatment programme for recent migrants in East London"],"prefix":"10.5588","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"K.","family":"O\u2019Brien","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Ikram","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Burman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Rahman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P.","family":"Patel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Dart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D.","family":"Trathen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D.","family":"Zenner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.M.","family":"Malhotra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H.","family":"Kunst","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"3554","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026031809085749000_16.1.8.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pmed.1002152"},{"key":"2026031809085749000_16.1.8.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1183\/13993003.00655-2019"},{"key":"2026031809085749000_16.1.8.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.aje.a121593"},{"key":"2026031809085749000_16.1.8.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1473-3099(18)30355-4"},{"key":"2026031809085749000_16.1.8.5","unstructured":"GOV.UK .
