Table 1.

The framework for calculating the predictive value and reliability of CHW collected data

Gold standard (Research assistants data) Test results (CHW data)
Positive (+) Negative (−)
 Positive (+) a b
 Negative (−) c d

Sensitivity = a/a + b

Specificity = d/c + d

Predictive value = a/a + c
