Closing the Gap in HIV Testing

MedInno combines affordable molecular testing, portable extraction platforms, and community-based screening models to enable earlier detection of HIV in underserved and low-resource settings.

OVERVIEW

HIV Remains a Global Public Health Threat

Treatment has transformed HIV into a manageable condition, but millions still don't know their status, delaying the care that stops onward transmission entirely.

THE MEDINNO APPROACH

A scalable workflow designed to reduce the cost of population-wide testing

SCREENING WORKFLOW

Geographic Mapping

We map districts with high HIV prevalence and low testing coverage, directing outreach to the communities at greatest risk.

SCREENING WORKFLOW

Community Mobilization

Community health workers and peer counsellors conduct confidential outreach and register individuals for point-of-care testing.

SCREENING WORKFLOW

Sample Collection

A simple finger-prick blood sample is collected on-site using protocols suited to community and mobile settings.

SCREENING WORKFLOW

Rapid Molecular Testing

Samples are processed on portable molecular platforms, delivering confirmatory results within hours instead of weeks.

SCREENING WORKFLOW

Treatment Linkage & Reporting

Confirmed cases are logged on our digital dashboard and linked directly to ART centres for immediate treatment initiation.

Technology

Screening Technology Beyond Labs

MedInno's molecular platforms are engineered for heat, dust, and unreliable power, so accurate HIV testing works as well in the field as in a hospital lab.

Nucleic Acid Extraction

Our low-cost extraction kits isolate viral RNA from a single blood sample without cold storage or specialised technicians.

Targeted Real-Time PCR

Purpose-built assays confirm HIV infection and detect early acute cases that rapid antibody tests can miss.

Field-Ready Infrastructure

Battery-powered instruments and rugged carry cases keep testing operational through power cuts and outreach travel.

Impact On Systems

Greater Rural Reach

Decentralised testing brings HIV diagnosis to sub-district health posts, reaching key populations that clinics rarely see.

Impact On Systems

Faster Case Notification

Same-day confirmatory results mean patients start antiretroviral therapy before they disengage from the care pathway.

Impact On Systems

Reduced Loss to Follow-Up

Earlier diagnosis and immediate treatment initiation meaningfully reduce the window for onward HIV transmission in a community.

FOR LOW-RESOURCE SETTINGS

Designed for gaps in standard diagnostic systems.

Metropolitan labs assume constant electricity, sterile clinical counters, and advanced laboratory engineers. Remote blocks present real structural barriers: spotty power, extreme heat, unpaved terrain, and diagnostic resource shortages.

MedInno systematically optimizes molecular reagents to maintain thermal tolerance, packages workflows inside portable rugged travel cases, and optimizes software for offline-sync data logging.
Collaboration

Mass screening is most effective as a public-health effort.

Government Health Departments

National AIDS control programmes rely on MedInno to extend confirmatory testing beyond district hospitals into block-level centres, supporting 95-95-95 targets without new permanent lab infrastructure.

icon

Public Health & Multilateral Bodies

Organisations such as UNAIDS and the Global Fund use MedInno's field data to track testing coverage and direct funding toward underserved districts.

icon

NGOs & Global Health Foundations

NGOs running outreach for key populations pair our portable kits with peer counsellors, reaching communities that facility-based testing rarely reaches.

icon

CSR & Corporate Partners

Corporate CSR programmes fund confidential testing camps for workers and surrounding communities, combining compliance with measurable public-health impact.

Work With Us to Strengthen HIV Testing

MedInno partners with governments, NGOs, laboratories and healthcare providers to strengthen access to molecular HIV testing and treatment-monitoring solutions across different levels of care.
