SENSITIVITY: The sensitivity of this self-test is 100% with a confidence interval within. All HIV-positive persons participating in this study have been correctly detected. No observations are observed. SPECIFICITY: The specificity of this self-test was assessed as 98% with a confidence interval between 98.5% and 100%. A 0.2% of seronegative individuals have been detected, i.e. 0.2% of the results are false positives. RELIABILITY: STAT-VIEW HIV has been proven effective in 4,943 people who did not know whether they were HIV-positive or not. The STAT-VIEW HIV test made it possible for them to test themselves. Researchers have compared the STAT-VIEW HIV results with the patient's status as confirmed by reference laboratory methods. The laboratory methods showed that a total of 296 people were HIV-positive and 4,480 were HIV-negative. Comparison of the results with the STAT-VIEW HIV results obtained by self-testing was as follows: 100% (4,480\/4,480) of people correctly reported a negative test result.
