CDC provides guidelines for HIV
testing and diagnosis for the United States, as well as technical
guidance for its grantees. The goals of the project are to: 1)
characterize the performance of new HIV tests for detecting
established and acute HIV infection at the point of care (POC)
relative to each other and currently used gold standard, non-POC
tests, and 2) identify behavioral and clinical predictors of early
HIV infection. CDC will use the HIV testing data collected in this
project to update HIV testing guidance documents to reflect the
latest available testing technologies and their performance
characteristics. CDC will use the information on behavioral and
clinical characteristics of persons with early infection to help
HIV test providers (including CDC grantees) more effectively target
the tests designed to detect early HIV infection, which are the
most expensive HIV tests and are most appropriately used to test
those at highest risk of infection. The main purpose of this Change
Request is to allow collection continuation with an additional site
with other minor changes.
