Avatar n tn t detect any virus.Also same time I took an ELISA test negative.Can anybody tell me if I am safe from HIV?I saw the info from US CDC saying that exposure on average after 25 days the antibody can be detected.Sigh,i am still worried.Anybody help me n give comments?Thank you.
Avatar m tn If so, your risk was substantial, especially from the unprotected anal sex event, less so from oral sex -- since HIV is most transmissible during the window period before the HIV antibody tests become positive. However, even if he has a new HIV infection, your test results show you weren't infected.
Avatar m tn Is the hiv elisa test{without the confirmatory test}the most reliable and accurate for detecting the hiv virus if you wait outside the 6 month window period?Is a second, third or fourth generation superior to a first generation elisa? Also why do blood banks use naat and other fancy tests to detect hiv? Do they do that to simply shorten the window period or would such fancy tests as naat, antigen, etc.

Avatar m tn What test would that lab do to test me for HIV.. I know its the ELISA test but its it more advanced or do they use the rapid as well, and if it were poz then do a Western Blot test.. I was just Wondering.
Avatar m tn the most common HIV test is the ELISA HIV Antibody test,which has a window period of 12 weeks, but you can get a solid result from 8 weeks onward, if it is available, I would suggest a DUO test at 4-6 weeks mark...
Avatar n tn Did u do a standard ELISA test or a Duo test? The doctor says that a duo test after 4 weeks give a correct result in over 98% of case. It's correct doctor Hunter?

Avatar f tn When is hiv test consider 100 acourate , I did test after unprotected sex , Elisa after 30days ,75days , hiv1&2 ,ab,ag after 4month is that enough or should I go for test again ?
Avatar m tn 2) I asked the hospital to perform an Elisa test but for some reason they did the Chemiluminscence HIV test despite having an Elisa test available with them. Is there any difference between the two tests and if so which of the one is an accurate one? 3) Do I need any further testing post this after 6 months, the reason being I was diagnosed with kidney stones during the 3 month window period, so was just wondering if that would have any effect on my HIV result.
Avatar n tn should the patient in the window period-22 days from sex act- with negative Elisa test carried on the 20 day-should he take any medicine as precaution?
Avatar m tn HIV DUO test is NOT approved in the US.
Avatar m tn cmia reported to be positive in that report ELISA is negative. Respectively on 8 March, 30 March and 3 may go on a test center for HIV, the test is ELISA HIV1 2 (Ag AB), report the result is negative. I would like to ask the doctor I can exclude the?? and test center staff told me that CMIA inspection accuracy than ELISA high.
Avatar m tn elisa test is an extremely accurate test. Its window period is 3 months after the last exposure. A negative result, which is given by taking this test 3 months after an exposure, is fully conclusive.
Avatar m tn The WB was unnecessary since you tested negative on the rapid test. A WB should only be used to confirm a positive result. You don't have HIV.
Avatar f tn org/posts/HIV-Prevention/PCR-Accuracy---HIV-Exposure--Concerned-and-Confused/show/256116 Now, I never heard of Western Blot being the test which can detect HIV during the window period. To my knowledge, it only serves as a confirmatory test if your antibodies test (ELISA or Rapid) shows that you are positive, in which case a conclusive result can only be obtained 3 months post-possible exposure.
