For children with HIV who have signs or symptoms or screen positive for pulmonary TB, concurrent testing using low-complexity automated nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) on respiratory and stool samples and LF-LAM on urine may be used as the initial diagnostic strategy for diagnosing TB, rather than low-complexity automated NAATs on respiratory or stool samples alone
