Article Synopsis
- Most HIV rapid tests primarily detect antibodies, which makes them less effective in identifying early HIV infections.
- The Determine test, which includes p24-antigen detection, shows better overall sensitivity compared to the One-Step test, particularly during the early stages of infection.
- Using tests that detect p24-antigen can reduce the diagnostic window significantly, from around 3 months to about 1 month, but caution is advised when testing in the first month after infection.
