摘要

COVID-19快速自我诊断检测(rdst)的日益普及在大流行期间发挥了重要且日益重要的作用。然而，对于许多服务不足的社区，rdst的潜在好处被可用性、准确性和公平性方面的问题所抵消。鉴于对包括COVID-19在内的急性和慢性疾病的家庭检测的需求和兴趣日益增加，这篇文章提供了监管机构、联邦公共卫生机构和测试开发人员应与不同社区合作的方法，以确保测试开发、实施和评估过程中的公平性。这种参与将确保在现实条件下为当前和未来的rdst带来最大的个人和公共卫生效益。

A Call to Improve Usability, Accuracy, and Equity of Self-Testing for COVID-19 and Other Rapid Diagnostic Tests.

The increasing availability of rapid diagnostic self-tests (RDSTs) for COVID-19 has played an important and increasing role during the pandemic. However, for many underserved communities, RDSTs potential benefits are offset by problems with usability, accuracy, and equity. Given the increased need for and interest in home testing for acute and chronic diseases, including COVID-19, this piece offers ways that regulatory agencies, federal public health agencies, and test developers should engage with diverse communities to ensure equity throughout test development, implementation, and evaluation. Such engagement will ensure maximum personal and public health benefits for current and future RDSTs under real-world conditions.
