individuals who are at risk (ASYMPTOMATIC) for a certain condition
Is screening primary, secondary, or tertiary?
Secondary prevention
What are screening test recommendations based on?
Guidelines that come from research from the U.S Preventive Service Task Force
What is the purpose of a diagnostic test?
Establish the absence of presence of a disease (have it or not)

-recommendations based on data

YES
What is the USPSTF screening recommendations?
-Based on the clinical research and evidence-based preventive care
-Recommendations are based of the grading of the research evidence
Grade of "A"
high certainty of benefit to test
Grade of "I"
no net benefit or potential harms outweigh the benefit
To measure the quality of a test its important to identify?
Sensitivity and Specificity
What do you look at when selecting screening tests?
the test is valid and reliable
Validity
is the screen distinguishing correctly:
1. Sensitivity
2. Specificity
Reliability
consistency of test results over time & between examiners
Sensitivity
,-Identifies correctly those WITH disease
-truly DO have the disease
-positive test result
High sensitivity screening test
detects most of the patients with the disease
Specificity
-Identifies correctly those W/O disease
-true negatives
False negative
test result that indicates a person does not have a disease or condition when the person
(actually) does have the illness
False positive
the patient does NOT have the disease, BUT the test is positive.
Sensitivity is prioritized when?
1. Disease is serious (want to identify as many true cases)
2. Treatment is effective and available (want to identify and treat as quickly as possible)
3. High risk of infectivity if individuals are not treated (want to minimize harm to others)
4. Subsequent test (next option) is cheap and low-risk
Specificity is often prioritized when?
1. Treatment is unpalatable (only want to treat those we are confident have the disease
and would benefit from the treatment)
2. Subsequent test is expensive and risky
A rapid flu screen has a sensitivity (50-70%). The result came back, and it is
negative. How would you explain the results to the patient and what would you
recommend?
