为了加强法属西印度群岛的艾滋病毒筛查，我们评估了在性传播感染检测中心进行快速检测的可行性。在标准筛选测试之前，向每个用户提供快速测试。在2007年10月至2008年12月期间，847名用户进行了艾滋病毒快速检测，1724名用户没有进行快速检测。快速检测的结果返回率为99.1%。然而，接受快速检测的客户明显比其他人更有可能没有返回获得标准筛查测试（艾滋病毒和其他性传播感染）的结果：27.4%对14.0%，相对风险为1.96（95%置信区间[CI] 1.67-2.30, P < 0.0001）。快速艾滋病毒检测有能力降低艾滋病毒检测和其他性传播感染确认结果的复报率。
To strengthen HIV screening in the French West Indies (FWI), we evaluated the feasibility of rapid tests in sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing centres. Rapid testing was offered to each user ahead of the standard screening tests. Between October 2007 and December 2008, 847 users had HIV rapid testing, and 1724 users did not have rapid testing. The results of rapid testing were returned to 99.1% of testers. However, clients who underwent rapid testing were significantly more likely than others to have not returned to get the results of their standard screening tests (for HIV and other STIs): 27.4% versus 14.0% with a relative risk of 1.96 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.67-2.30, P < 0.0001). Rapid HIV testing has the capacity to reduce the return rates for confirmatory results of HIV testing and other STIs.
