Table 4 Performance of two RDTs for detection of P. falciparum and P. vivax with microscopy as the gold standard
From: Performance of two rapid diagnostic tests for malaria diagnosis at the China-Myanmar border area
| Â | Pf/Pan (N=606) | Pf/Pan (N=350) | Pv/Pf (N=350) |
|---|---|---|---|
Sensitivity for P. falciparum | 88.6 (85.9-91.3) | 87.5 (83.8-91.2) | 91.7 (88.5-94.8) |
Sensitivity for P. vivax (non-falciparum for Pf/Pan) | 69.9 (66.0-73.8) | 72.0 (66.9-77.1) | 73.8 (68.7-78.8) |
Specificity | 90.4 (87.8-93.1) | 94.3 (91.4-97.1) | 96.5 (94.3-98.7) |
