In high human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence settings, routine screening of infants attending immunization visits could improve identification of HIV-exposed infants to receive an early diagnosis and appropriate interventions. This first assessment of 2 rapid oral fluid HIV tests in early infancy demonstrates a sensitivity of <90% for detection of HIV-exposure resulting in failure to detect at least 1 in 10 HIV-infected infants.
在人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)高发地区,对接受免疫接种的婴儿进行常规筛查,可以提高发现HIV 暴露婴儿的能力,以便及时做出诊断并采取适当的干预措施。本研究首次评估了两种快速口腔液 HIV 检测方法在婴儿早期的应用情况,结果显示,这些方法检测 HIV 暴露的灵敏度<90%,导致至少 10 例 HIV 感染婴儿漏检。
