On June 13, 2007, the FDA approved the first rapid diagnostic test (RDT) for use in the United States, the Binax NOW Malaria. This RDT is approved for use by hospital/commercial laboratories, not by individual clinicians or by patients themselves. It is recommended that all RDTs are followed by microscopy to confirm the results and, if positive, to quantify the proportion of red blood cells that are infected. This video provides guidance regarding the test procedure and results interpretation.
