Abstract
En 中文
Transfusion-transmitted malaria can occur when donors have unrecognized asymptomatic infection with submicroscopic parasitemia, highlighting the need to detect low-level parasitemia in blood donor screening. However, these highly sensitive blood donor testing algorithms may refer donors to clinicians who use diagnostic algorithms with less analytical sensitivity. Here we describe the analytical sensitivity of a Health Canada (HC)/FDA approved blood donor screening test compared to commonly used diagnostic test algorithms.
