Simple Screening Tool to Help Identify High-Risk Children for Targeted HIV Testing in Malawian Inpatient Wards
Conclusions:
A brief screening tool for pediatric inpatients helped target HIV testing in those most at risk in a low-pediatric-prevalence, resource-constrained setting. Future research should include a direct, rigorous comparison with PITC including comparative effectiveness, efficiency, and cost effectiveness.
