INTRODUCTION
Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for detecting Plasmodium antigens have become increasingly common worldwide. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of the Immuno-Rapid Malaria Pf/Pv RDT in detecting Plasmodium vivax infection compared to standard thick blood smear (TBS) under microscopy.
METHODS
Hundred and eighty-one febrile patients from the hospital's regular admissions were assessed using TBS and RDT in a blinded experiment.
RESULTS
RDT showed a sensitivity of 98.9%, specificity of 100%, and accuracy of 99.5% for P. vivax infection when compared to TBS.
CONCLUSIONS
The RDT is highly accurate, making it a valuable diagnostic tool for P. vivax infection.
引言
用于检测疟原虫抗原的快速诊断检测(RDT)在全球范围内已变得越来越普遍。我们旨在评估免疫快速疟疾Pf/Pv RDT与显微镜下标准厚血涂片(TBS)相比检测间日疟原虫感染的准确性。
方法
在一项盲法实验中,对医院常规住院的181名发热患者使用TBS和RDT进行评估。
结果
与TBS相比,RDT检测间日疟原虫感染的灵敏度为98.9%,特异性为100%,准确性为99.5%。
结论
RDT具有高度准确性,使其成为间日疟原虫感染的一种有价值的诊断工具。
