HIV-1 Qualitative, RNA (Early Detection) Test

HIV is a sexually transmitted disease (that can be spread outside of sexual contact) known as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). It is the virus that causes AIDS. This condition damages your immune system and can lead to serious illness, infections and many other symptoms.

This test is intended to be used as an aid to diagnose acute or primary HIV infection. The presence of HIV-1 RNA without antibody to HIV-1 is indicative of an acute or primary infection. This test is also ordered to confirm HIV-1 infection in a person who repeatedly test positive for HIV-1 infection or to resolve an indeterminate or inconclusive HIV-1 result.
