AbstractObjectives: The aim of this study was to monitor and evaluate the program performance and management control system of tuberculosis in Sistan and Baluchestan Province by comparing the annual indicators over ten years. Methods: This descriptive study was performed in the health departments of the province, using the records of tuberculosis patients during 2006 - 2016. Data were analyzed in SPSS version 23. Results: The lowest rate of smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis was reported in 2011 (27.23%). Based on the findings, the incidence of new cases of smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis showed a downward trend during 2006 - 2016. The highest incidence of new smear-positive pulmonary cases was reported in 2006 (1.69%). According to the findings, to achieve a high success rate in tuberculosis management, revisions are needed in control programs and training workshops for healthcare personnel. Conclusions: Tuberculosis can be eliminated through correct implementation of directly observed treatment, short-course (DOTS) strategy, implementation of educational and tuberculosis drug programs, and use of correct management policies.en
