Assessing the reliability and test performance of malaria rapid diagnostic tests after expiration.
REFNo: HS4760ES
AIM 1: Estimate the reliability, defined as the proportion of malaria RDTs that function (i.e., appearance of control band) at various time-points up to one year after expiration. AIM 2: Determine the test performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity) of malaria RDTs for the diagnosis of P. falciparum malaria at various time-points up to one year after expiration compared to non-expired RDTs and routine light microscopy performed in parallel. AIM 3: Estimate the time-to-negativity after treatment among participants with a positive RDT on enrollment.,The primary objective of the proposed project is to evaluate the performance of malaria RDTs at various states of expiration (e.g., 1-, 2-, 3-months post-expiration) compared to non-expired RDTs in routine use. If our hypothesis is correct, our results may facilitate (i) use beyond the stated expiration and/or production of RDTs with longer expiration periods, both of which could reduce medical waste. ,
