Table 2. Sensitivity and specificity of Kato-Katz and the POC-CCA test using a latent class model.
Kato-Katz (quadruplicate) | POC-CCA test | |
---|---|---|
POC-CCA(tr+) | ||
Sensitivity | 78.2 (95% CI: 71.0–84.5) | 95.1 (95% CI: 89.2–98.5) |
Specificity | 96.1 (95% CI: 90.8–98.8) | 82.9 (95% CI: 71.5–91.6) |
POC-CCA(tr-) | ||
Sensitivity | 78.9 (95% CI: 71.5–85.4) | 74.4 (95% CI: 63.8–83.7) |
Specificity | 95.4 (95% CI: 89.2–98.6) | 94.5 (95% CI: 86.9–98.5) |
Note: For microsimulation, Kato-Katz sensitivity was estimated from literature as a function of infection intensity (EPG)
