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)
