What is the HIV rapid screening test used for?

This test is used:

To detect HIV antibodies in blood samples or saliva samples generally provided in a few minutes.
To screen for AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) in high-risk individuals (people who use injections for drug abuse, share common needles, etc.)
Monitoring HIV treatment in the infected individual for any improvement out of medication and changes in lifestyle.
To confirm there is a risk of HIV infection in pregnant women.

What is included in the HIV rapid screening test?

HIV tests are performed by drawing blood from a vein in your arm or using a salivary or urine sample.

There are different types of HIV tests.

NAT test looks for the presence of actual HIV in the individual’s blood. This test is costly but can detect the infection more than any other test.This test can be used to find the actual load of the virus in the blood. Since the test is costly, take the test if you already have HIV symptoms or are at high risk of getting exposed to HIV.
The antigen-antibody test is another type of test to detect the presence of both HIV antigens and antibodies. When infected with HIV, an antigen called p24 is produced. Thus, the antigen test looks for the presence of p24 in your body. The results are confirmed by taking another test called the antibody test, which checks for antibodies developed for fighting HIV antigen.
Antibody test checks for the presence of the antibodies developed against the HIV antigen in your body. Rapid antibody screening is the widely used and fastest test for detecting both types of HIV in your body.

How to prepare for an HIV rapid screening test?

There is no special preparation required for the test. Please inform the doctor about pre-existing health conditions (if you have any other sexually transmitted disease, diabetes, high or low blood pressure, if you underwent an operation where immunosuppressive drugs were administered) and the medication you are taking for any other diseases health condition before taking the test.

There are no special precautions required for this test.

Things to consider after HIV rapid screening test is complete

Please stay calm while waiting for the results. Generally, the HIV rapid screening test takes only 30 – 40 minutes. The results can be either positive or negative or false positive/negative. Once you get the results report, kindly consult your doctor to interpret the results.

The test results are negative if it is taken at the early stage of infection. So, your doctor may advise you to take another test after 2 or 3 months.

If the test result is positive, the doctor or healthcare provider will ask you to take it one more time to confirm the results. If the positive result is confirmed, consult your doctor, take medication and check the viral load at regular intervals to check whether the medication is working or there needs to be any change in the medication regimen.

Usually, the doctors will begin Antiretroviral therapy for the treatment of HIV. This will help for the reduction of the viral load in blood. Once it is below the detectable limit, it is safer to have intercourse with a partner with protection. There will be no risk of viral transmission to your partner when safety precautions are taken.

What type of infections can an HIV rapid screening test detect?

HIV causes AIDS, restraining the body’s capacity to fight against infections. This test helps provide an easy diagnosis of HIV infection by measuring the levels of related antibodies.

But the infection can be detected only after 3–4 weeks of acquiring HIV in the individual’s blood. The earlier stage of the infection may give false-negative results. Thus, a test has to be taken after a month approximately to confirm the results.

How much does an HIV rapid screening test cost?

HIV testing charges will be covered under the medical insurance in most policies. If you don’t have medical insurance, try to book an appointment with the MFine app. The lab technician will visit your home directly and collect the sample.

How to read the HIV rapid screening report?

Normal result

A normal test result means there is no HIV infection in your blood. This means the results are negative. A negative result indicates that there is an absence of HIV antibodies in your blood. Normal results are named negative.
The test has to be taken after at least one month of exposure to confirm the results. If the repeated test also shows negative results, it means there is no infection.

Indeterminate result

Indeterminate test results are not very clear. This may be due to the testing taken at an early stage, even before HIV antibodies develop. Or it may be due to the interference of another type of antibody with the results making it unclear. In this case, also, you will have to order another test.

Abnormal result

An abnormal result is also called HIV positive. The positive result shows that you have HIV antibodies in your blood. These results are called abnormal results.
The test is repeated to confirm the positive results on the same blood sample. If results are positive, that should be confirmed by another type of test. This is because false-positive results could also appear during the test.
