Strategies for diagnosis and treatment of suspected leptospirosis: a cost-benefit analysis

Strategies for diagnosis and treatment of suspected leptospirosis: a cost-benefit analysis

BACKGROUND: Symptoms and signs of leptospirosis are non-specific. Several diagnostic tests for leptospirosis are available and in some instances are being used prior to treatment of leptospirosis-suspected patients. There is therefore a need to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the different treat...
