Evaluation of the AIX1000 automated rapid plasma reagin test in a tertiary academic medical center
The AIX1000 showed good concordance with manual RPR, particularly at lower titers, with reliable analytical performance and operational advantages. However, systematic titer underestimation compared to manual RPR, particularly in high-titer samples, may affect clinical interpretation if tests are transitioned. Clinicians should be informed of this discrepancy when transitioning platforms.
