Table 1.

Formula for Sensitivity, Specificity, Positive Predictive Value (PPV), Negative Predictive Value (NPV) Calculation

Positive test result True Positive (TP) False Positive (FP) PPV: TP/(TP+FP)
Negative test result False Negative (FN) True Negative (TN) NPV: TN/(TN+FN)
Sensitivity: TP/(TP+FN) Specificity: TN/(FP+TN)
