Abstract
The OraQuick HCV rapid test in OMT has a high sensitivity and specificity for detecting active HCV infection that decreases substantially in anti-HCV positive/HCV-RNA negative patients with treatment-induced viral clearance. For these individuals, extension of read times and testing fingerstick blood showed improved sensitivity.
