Condition: Mpox · Sponsor: Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven
The objective of this prospective paired diagnostic comparison study is to evaluate the diagnostic yield and field applicability of SDS-EDTA-treated chromatography paper strips for the collection, transport, and laboratory detection of mpox virus compared with the routine swab-based sampling method under field conditions in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The study is conducted among patients with suspected mpox infection presenting to healthcare facilities in South Kivu, DRC. For each participant, paired samples are collected simultaneously using the standard swab method and the SDS-EDTA strip method. Samples are analyzed using locally available molecular diagnostic platforms.
