Perbandingan Rapid Diagnostic Test dan Pemeriksaan Mikroskopik pada Diagnosis Malaria Comparative of Rapid Diagnostic Test with Microscopy to Diagnose Malaria Diseases)
The study was conducted to compare rapid diagnostic test with microscopy(blood film) to diagnose malaria disease. This diagnostic test was done inSouth of Nias District and Sabang District, North Sumatera. Blood film werecolored with Giemsa 10% solution and examined by trained microscopists.Rapid Diagnostic Test was done based on the manual procedure. The resultsof diagnostic test of rapid diagnostic test were sensitivity 63,5%; specificity100%, positive predictive value (PPV) 100%, and negative predictivevalue (NPV) 93,5%. The density of parasite in rapid diagnostic test (+) were1.483 + 583 parasite/µl (1.120-2.920 parasite/µl. In other hand, the densityof parasite in rapid diagnostic test (-) and microscopy were 621 + 335 parasite/µl (120-1.160 parasite/µl). Microscopy still better than rapid diagnostictest, especially in patient with low parasite density.
