Ethiop Med J. 2008 Jan;46(1):1-5 Authors: Dessie A, Abera B, Walle F, Wolday D, Tamene W OBJECTIVE: The study aims to evaluate the Hiv-1/2 rapid diagnostic Test kit is routinely used to screen Hiv infection for safe blood transfusion and VCT services in many parts of Ethiopia. METHODS: A total of 324 sera were collected from consecutive blood donors from February to May 2006. All samples were screened for Hiv infection using Determine Hiv-1/2 (Abbott Japan) at hospital blood bank laboratory. Blindly, all serums were retested at Regional Health Research Laboratory using 4th generation ELISA (Vironostika Hiv Uni-Form II AG/Ab) and Determine Hiv-1/2 (Abbott lab). Discordant samples were repeatedly retested using the same ELISA and Determine Hiv-1/2 to avoid technical errors. Finally, discordant results were resolved using Western Blot at the National Hiv/AIDS Laboratory. RESULTS: Determine Hiv-1/2 and ELISA showed 94.4% concordance in Hiv antibody testing with fair Cohen's Kappa statistic value (0.68) among blood donors. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of Determine Hiv-1/2 were 60.5%, 98.9%, 88.5% and 94.9% respectively. CONCLUSION: As a rapid Hiv screening Test for blood donors, Determine Hiv-1/2 showed poor sensitivity. Furt ... Source: www.moreover.com --- 31 days ago
