Rapid testing refers to HIV antibody testing using either a fingerstick or oral fluid (quick swab of the top and bottom gums). With rapid testing, a specimen is collected at the start of the test session and then the test develops in another room. This test takes twenty minutes to develop a result, and normally the client sits and talks with the counselor during that twenty minute timeframe.
Results are available after those twenty minutes, and are disclosed by the same counselor. If the result is reactive, it is what is called preliminary positive and at that point blood must be drawn to send to an off-site lab and confirm the result. If the initial rapid test was done with oral fluid, the test will also be repeated with a fingerstick sample at the time the blood is drawn for confirmation. |
