What this Trial Is About
In this cross-sectional diagnostic study, healthy adults aged 18 and older with suspected, clinical, or confirmed scabies will be recruited. The objective is to determine if the sensitivity of self-collected skin samples for scabies diagnosis is non-inferior to professional sampling, and compare the sensitivity and specificity of the polymerase chain reaction assay (PCR) versus microscopy.
