1989 USPHS Recommendation “The Public Health Service recommends that no positive test results be given to clients/patients until a screening test has been repeatedly reactive on the same specimen and a supplemental, more specific test such as the Western blot has been used to validate those results.” - Interpretation and Use of the Western Blot Assay for Serodiagnosis of HIV-1 Infections.

Qualitative Interpretation of Quantitative Probabilistic Expressions • Based on positive predictive value: • “Very likely” you are infected • “Somewhat likely…” • “Possible…” • “There’s a chance…”
CDC’s Recommended Counseling Message • “Your preliminary test result is positive, but we won’t know for sure if you are infected with HIV until we get the results from your confirmatory test. In the meantime, you should take precautions to avoid transmitting the virus.” -HIV Counseling with Rapid Tests. http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/pubs/rt-counseling.htm
Background • Oraquick Rapid HIV-1 Antibody Test • Approved for use with whole blood November 2002 • CLIA-waived February 2003 • Approved for use with oral fluid March 2004 • Approved for HIV-2 detection and name changed to “OraQuick Advance” June 2004 • CDC initiated post-marketing surveillance in 2003
Postmarketing Surveillance: Aug 2004-June 2005 Median seropositivity and specificityfor 17 project areas

Interim Algorithm, NYC & San Francisco: Finger-stick after Reactive Oral Fluid Test OraQuick Advance Reactive with oral fluid Fingerstick Reactive Fingerstick Negative Conduct OraQuick Advance Fingerstick Counseling Message: Both rapid tests we ran today were preliminary positive. It is likely that you have HIV. To make absolutely sure, we are going to draw blood and send it to our lab so they can run confirmatory testing. The results of those tests will be ready in 1 week. In the meantime, you should assume that you are infected with HIV, and take all necessary precautions to protect your partners. Counseling Message: Although the oral rapid test we ran today was preliminary positive, the fingerstick test was negative. Because the fingerstick test is a more accurate test, it’s likely that you don’t have HIV. In order to know for sure, we need to draw blood and send it to our lab for confirmation. The results of those tests will be ready in 1 week. In the meantime, you should assume that you may be infected with HIV, and take all necessary precautions to protect your partners. Lab runs EIA, IFA/WB

Conclusions • Rapid HIV tests demonstrate high specificity, but as with all screening tests, false-positive tests will occur and should be expected. Confirmatory testing after a reactive test must always be performed. • More persons learn their HIV status when they receive timely results from rapid tests than with conventional HIV testing. • OraQuick specificity is slightly lower with oral fluid than with whole blood, but well above FDA’s minimum threshold (98%) with both specimen types. • Excess false-positive oral fluid tests occurred at a limited number of sites and appear to be related to unidentified site- or host-specific factors.
