Perbandingan Efektifitas Rapid Diagnostic Test (Rdt) Dengan Pemeriksaan Mikroskop Pada Penderita Malaria Klinis : Di Kecamatan Jaro
Abstract
ABSTRACT: Malaria is a disease caused by genus Plasmodium. Enforcement of the diagnosis malaria is microscopic examination of thick blood droplets and thin blood droplets and examination of Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT). Gold standard for the diagnosis of malaria is microscopic examination. Rapid Diagnosis Test (RDT) is one alternative diagnostic tool in detecting Plasmodium quickly and doesn’t require special skill. The purpose of this study was to discover the effectiveness of Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) compared with microscopic examination in patient with clinical malaria in Jaro Sub-district. This study was a descriptive analytic study using the data of the result of malaria examination means of microscope examination and RDT on January – June 2012, with cross sectional approach. RDT examination result showed 98% sensitivity value, 100% specificity value, 100% positive predictive value and 98% negative predictive value compared with microscopic examination. Statistical test using Mc.Nemar test with 95% level of confidence interval p=0,125 (p>0,05). This show was no difference in the effectiveness of RDT examination and microscopic examination of patients with clinical malaria in Jaro Sub-district.
