dc.description.abstractObjective: Malaria has been eradicated in Türkiye as of 2010, but there are imported cases. In this study, we aimed to compare the diagnostic value of two rapid tests; SD Bioline Malaria Ag Pf/Pan (SD-Pf/Pan) and SD Bioline Malaria Ag Pf/Pv (SD-Pf/Pv) with microscopy and real time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Methods: Blood samples were taken from all participants. Thick drop smears were prepared. Thick drop smears were examined for malaria positive/negative distinction under the light microscopy. Then, two rapid diagnostic tests (SD-Pf/Pan and SD-Pf/Pv) were performed. After DNA extraction from blood samples, RT-PCR was typed. The data were evaluated with SPSS 21 program of statistics. Results: A total of 30 cases out of 66 suspected malaria cases were detected as positive with microscopy and RT-PCR. Twenty- seven patients were found positive with both SD-Pf/Pan and SD-Pf/Pv tests. Based on the microscopic results as a reference method, SD-Pf/Pan and SD-Pf/Pv rapid diagnostic tests had a 90% sensitivity, 100% specificity, 100% positive predictive value (PPV), and 92.86% negative predictive value (NPV). Based on the RT-PCR results as a reference method, for detection of P. falciparum, both tests had a 95.65% sensitivity, 100% specificity, 100% PPV, and 88.89% NPV. Moreover, while SD-Pf/Pv had a sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV of 100% in detection of P. vivax; SD-Pf/Pan has a 77.78% sensitivity of, 61.90% specificity of, 46.67% PPV, and 86.67% NPV SD-Pf/Pan for detection of PAN. Conclusion: As a result, high sensitivity and specificity were detected in both kits in the diagnosis of malaria infections caused by P. falciparum and P. vivax. Rapid diagnostic tests can be used safely in diagnosis however the diagnosis should be supported by microscopy and RT-PCR methods when they are applicable.en_US
