PILOTING TESTING OF POINT OF CARE DIAGNOSTICS TO IMPROVE DIAGNOSIS OF MICROBIAL KERATITIS IN UGANDA.
REFNo: HS2719ES
1. Our overall aim is to improve the diagnosis of the type of MK (bacterial or fungal) at secondary-level facilities in Uganda. We will do this by comparing several novel alternative point of care diagnostic tests in a phased tertiary level and secondary level approach.
2. Assess the diagnostic performance (relative diagnostic yield, time to diagnosis, uptake, and ease of use) of the alternative point-of-care tests in three secondary units in Uganda.,1. Measure the performance (sensitivity and specificity) of these tests carried out by general ophthalmic clinic personnel, compared to a composite reference standard and the ocular microbiologist at the tertiary unit in Uganda.
3. Determine the sensitivity and specificity of several novel alternative diagnostic tests compared to a composite reference standard. Novel tests to be compared include calcofluor White + KOH, smartphone-based fluorescence microscopy, and the isothermal amplification test. The tests will be conducted by an ocular microbiologist at the tertiary unit in Uganda.
