CD4 TEST, 200 cells/µl, wb, 1 test (Visitect AB376)

This item is replacing SSDTCD4T25T, reason: new manufacturer and new reference SSDTCD4T25T2 is not yet validated as MSF standard.

Please contact the laboratory advisor in your OC for advise regarding the most adapted solution for CD4 count.

CAUTION

This test is worded and codified by unit to make the order easier, but it is always packaged in kit of 25.

Definition

The VISITECT CD4 Advanced Disease Rapid Test is a manually operated semi-quantitative assay for the estimation of CD4 protein on the surface of CD4+ T cells in human whole blood (capillary or EDTA venous) to indicate whether the level is above or below 200 cells/μL within pre-diagnosed HIV patients.

This test is a tool in the management of patients with advanced HIV disease (patients with CD4 count below 200 cells/µl).
