Summary

The study aims to perform a head to head comparison of 11 typhoid tests currently in the market and simultaneously develop a sample set that can be used in future evaluations of emerging technologies. The central objective is to evaluate different Typhoid Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs) that are commercially available internationally for detecting antigens or antibodies to Salmonella Typhi and use Blood culture as standard for comparison. The end point will be to determine estimates of sensitivity and specificity for each test, with 95% confidence interval, using blood culture as reference.
