Sensitivity and specificity of screening HIV tests compared to a strategy including pooled HIV NAAT, among PHSKC STD Clinic participants only.

# tests Sensitivity (95% CI)
compared to all cases
Sensitivity (95% CI)
compared to EIA+ cases
Specificity (95% CI)
OraQuick (oral fluid) 2180 51/68 = 75.0% (63.0–84.7) 51/60 = 85.0% (73.4–92.9) 2109/2112 = 99.86% (99.59–99.97)
OraQuick (fingerstick) 2175 53/68 = 77.9% (66.2–87.1) 53/60 = 88.3% (77.4–95.2) 2107/2107 = 100% (99.82–100)
Uni-Gold 1614 45/53 = 84.9% (72.4–93.3) 45/47 = 95.7% (85.5–99.5) 1561/1561 = 100% (99.76–100)
INSTI 559 11/15 = 73.3% (44.9–92.2) 11/13 = 84.6% (54.6–98.1) 543/544 = 99.82% (98.98–100)
Determine Combo 1523 34/40 = 84.6% (70.2–94.3) 33/36* = 91.7% (77.5–98.2) 1468/1483 = 98.99% (98.34–99.43)
GS HIV-1/HIV-2 Plus O antibody (EIA) 2161 58/66 = 87.9% (77.5–94.6) 2091/2095 = 99.81% (99.51–99.95)
*

This numerator and denominator do not include the participant who tested EIA-negative but p24 Ag-positive on Determine Combo.

Note: estimates cannot be directly compared, as not all POC tests were used on all participants.
