Authors' objectives:

Rapid human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody testing offers the potential to increase the number of people undergoing HIV testing and to provide faster results than HIV antibody tests that use enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methodology. The goal of rapid HIV testing is to improve access to testing, with the objective of reducing the prevalence of unrecognized infections, which is essential for appropriate and timely treatment and as part of an overall disease control strategy.
