Performance Evaluation of the Elecsys HCV Duo Immunoassay in the Public Healthcare setting in Cape Town, South Africa

2025-03-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> Improved hepatitis C virus (HCV) diagnosis and linkage to care is crucial to achieve WHO 2030 elimination targets. Simplification of diagnostics remains key. We evaluated the performance of Elecsys HCV Duo antigen/antibody immunoassay in patients using public healthcare in Cape Town, South Africa. <h4>Methods</h4> 253 HCV seropositive and 214 seronegative samples were tested, and results correl...
