The literature search strategies were developed by a medical librarian with expertise in systematic review searching, with input from ASK, DAJM and KLF. The literature search was constructed using concepts for the condition (tuberculosis) and the interventions (respiratory isolation, triage, bacteriologic susceptibility tests). A search in OvidSP Medline was constructed and agreed by the team. This was checked for errors by a librarian unconnected to the project before being used as the template for all other searches. Search terms and syntax were updated as required by each new database. The following databases were searched on 9 and 10 November 2017. OvidSP Medline, 1946-present; OvidSP Embase, 1947 to 2017 November 08; Global Health, 1910 to 2017 Week 43; OvidSP Northern Light Life Sciences Conference Abstracts, 2010 - 2017 Week 43; Ebsco CINAHL Plus, full database; Africa-Wide Information, full database; Web of Science Core Collection (Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) --1970-present, Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) --1970-present, Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI) --1975-present, Conference Proceedings Citation Index- Science (CPCI-S) --1990-present, Conference Proceedings Citation Index- Social Science & Humanities (CPCI-SSH) --1990-present, Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) --2015-present, Data last updated: 2017-11-09); Web of Science Korean Journals Database, 1980-present, data last updated 2017-11-02; Russian Science Citation Index, 2005-present. Data last updated 2017/11/09; SciELO Citation Index, 2005-present. Data last updated 2017/11/09; Wiley Cochrane Library, CDSR 2017 issue 11; Elsevier Scopus, full database; Bireme Virtual Health Library LILACS, full database. Where possible, animal studies were removed, and results were limited to the following languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Russian, Chinese. No date limits were added.
