Background • 8 conventional laboratories serve the whole country needs for viral load with long TAT. • Logistics of sample transportation are a bottleneck to achieving optimal results TAT. • Point-of-care (POC) test for CD4 and EID have shown positive impact in patient important outcomes. • POC for viral load (POCVL) would significantly improve management of HIV+ patients
m-PIMA HIV-1/2 VL Test • Instrument: Scaled up for EID testing at 130 health facilities. • Investigational use only cartridge : Quantitative HIV-1/2 viral load (VL) • Requires 50µl of plasma sample • Test result in less than 70 min • Kit’s volumetric transfer tool simplifies sampling
Methods • Cross-sectional study in 2 PHCC in Maputo City • Sample size: 699 (Women PMTCT cascade) • 233 patients for each VL interval (< 1000 cps/ml, 1000-10000 cps/ml, >10000 cps/ml) • 1 microtube 0,5mL venous blood mini-centrifuged (not provided by the manufacturer) for POCVL testing • 6 ml EDTA tube- Plasma conventional testing (CAPCTM Roche) • 1 DBS card (routine VL in Mozambique)
Sensitivity/Specificity/PPV/NPV mPima (Venous blood) vs Plasma CAPCTM
Correlation of 0.922 between Conventional Plasma vs. POC viral load (venous)
BIAS of 0.202 log cp/ml between conventional vs POC Viral Load (venous)
Sub study-Capillary Blood • H Polana Caniço and CS 1 de Maio. • Sample size: 93 pregnant woman • Capillary Blood=> advantage • 5-6 drops of capillary blood=> microtube=>Centrifuged=> plasma transferred to mPima • 6 ml EDTA of venous blood => Microtube=> mPima
Correlation of 0.983 between Venous blood vs Capillary Blood POC viral load
BIAS of 0.021 log cps/ml between POCVL for Venous and Capillary Blood
Conclusion • The mPima POC Viral load can be operated by nurses and implemented in routine primary health care services. • The use of a mini-centrifuge is a feasible approach to obtain plasma for POC VL testing. • The use of capillary blood could simply the collection in clinical environment. • The mPima presents an opportunity to increase device utilization through VL/EID integration
