ANALISIS METODE SEROLOGI WIDAL LAPANGAN, WIDAL PEMBANDING, DAN KULTUR PADA PENDERITA SUSPEK DEMAM TIFOID DI SULAWESI SELATAN
Abstrak: The aim of the study
was to discover the difference of field widal and comparative widal in
detecting Salmonella typhi in typhoid suspect patient, sensitivity,
specificity, positive and negative prediction scores of Widal and to culture.
The study was conducted at the Biomolecular and Immunology Laboratory of the
faculty of Medicine Hasanuddin University. The number of samples was 40 typhoid
suspect patiens colleted from examination of field Widal at public health
centers and hospitals in south Sulawesi. The serum samples of the patient were
reexamined by using Widal comparative methods, and culture examination was done
to blood sample. The results of the study indicate that comparative widal
sensitivity 70%, spesificity 26%, positive predictive score 24,1%, negative
predictive score 16,7%, and filed Widal sensitivity 30%, specificity 30%,
positive predictive score 16,7%, and negative predictive score 68,2%. The
comparative Widal has higher sensitivity than field Widal.
