I covered syphilis in one of my videos for my RU-vid channel and it’s definitely a topic that needs more awareness! Thanks for the upload 👍

I will be definitely taking the crash course. I like the explanation but not familiar with the ratios. I just finished my FNP and getting ready for boards now it is so much information to retain!

What if the result showed from FTA-ABS test was weak positive? What does it mean?

@RealWorldNP 3 года назад

It's possible it's positive or false positive, so I'd retest to confirm. It's a test for antibodies and it's possible the antibody response wasn't robust if they were infected but I'd retest to be sure.
