External quality assessment on the use of malaria rapid diagnostic tests in a non-endemic setting Philippe Gillet, Pierre Mukadi, Kris Vernelen, Marjan Van Esbroeck, Jean-Jacques Muyembe, Cathrien Bruggeman, Jan Jacobs Malaria Journal 2010, 9:359 (13 December 2010) A study reporting on the results of an external quality assessment session on RDTs in a non-endemic setting.
A total of 128/133 (96.2%) of clinical laboratories using RDTs participated. Six three-band and one four-band RDT brands were used. Errors in RDT performance were mainly related to RDT test line interpretations, partly due to incorrect package insert instructions.
