About this trial
To evaluate the clinical performance of each analyte (HIV, HBsAg, and Syphilis) on the TruPlex HIV/HepB/Syphilis Rapid Test (TruPlex Test) using capillary blood (fingerstick), EDTA whole blood, EDTA-plasma, and SST-serum samples collected by trained operators at point-of-care settings. Additionally, to evaluate the usability of the TruPlex test through: structured usability assessments, via a questionnaire, completed by trained operators in point-of-care settings.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Performance Evaluation
The study will assess the sensitivity and specificity of the TruPlex Test for detecting: * HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies * Syphilis antibodies * Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) Capillary blood, EDTA whole blood, EDTA-plasma and SST-serum samples will be tested using the TruPlex Test. Performance will be compared against approved, current on-market assays for the detection of HIV 1/2 antibodies, Syphilis antibodies, and HBsAg.
Secondary outcomes
Usability Evaluation
Usability will be determined via a questionnaire completed by trained personnel who used the device during testing. The usability questionnaire will use a scale of one (1) to 5 (1 - very difficult/very unlikely to 5 - very easy/very likely), with a rating of 3 being satisfactory.
