Test Result Interpretation
HIV test results are reported as indeterminate, negative, or positive. To understand the result, it is essential to know about the window period. You cannot detect the virus immediately after the infection. The time from when the person is infected to when the infection can be detected is called the window period.
Ranges
In laboratory HIV tests, Western Blot test and a few other tests:
Presence of antigen/antibody | Positive |
Absence of antigen/antibody | Negative |
The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the test may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.
