Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
A simple and robust point of care (PoC) device for the rapid diagnosis of dengue infection will be developed. This can help to increase speed of dengue diagnosis, which ultimately improves the quality of life of infected people. This device will be tested with positive samples of dengue infection. This will also be compared with the conventional methods in the same samples.Timepoint: This will be done during the 9th and 10th month of the study

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The parameters like, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value will be assessed.Timepoint: This analysis will be done during the 10th month of the study
