Summary

This is a cross-sectional and multicentre clinical trial to study the performance of the Histidine Rich Protein 2 (HRP2) highly sensitive rapid diagnostic test (HS-RDT) for the detection of malaria during pregnancy in low transmission settings from Colombia and Indonesia. The new HS-RDT will be compared with conventional good quality RDTs, microscopy, and NAATs \[loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), nested PCR (nPCR)\], in peripheral blood samples with quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) as reference standard.
