Evaluating Field Performance of Highly Sensitive Malaria RDT: Detection of Infection Among Febrile Patients, Asymptomatic Pregnant Women and Household Contacts in Mpigi, Uganda

2021-09-23

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>BackgroundWorld Health Organisation recommends that malaria case management be based on parasite-based diagnosis in all cases, but currently available tools for clinical use have limitations, including the inability to detect low-level infections. Currently, next-generation highly sensitive rapid diagnostic tests (hsRDT) for Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) are commercially available, but req...
