Modeled diagnosis and treatment coverage based on sensitivity and specificity of caregiver recall across actual intervention coverages in a given community.

<p>Proportions of patients actually experiencing each event at the study clinics are illustrated with red arrows. The solid black line at a 45° angle represents 100% sensitivity and specificity. Estimates for the coverage of these interventions expected from a household survey from caregiver recall with the sensitivity and specificity observed in this study (blue line) were modeled for true intervention coverages (observed at clinic) ranging from 0% to 100% as follows: estimated coverage from caregiver recall = (true coverage at clinic<i>×</i>sensitivity)+[(1−true coverage at clinic)<i>×</i>[1−specificity)].</p
