Introduction: dengue is endemic in the Chulucanas district; in 2017 and 2023, large epidemic outbreaks occurred. For the confirmation of dengue, tests such as ELISA NS1 and IgM are considered, which are moderately complex. Rapid tests can be an option in health facilities that do not have equipment or trained personnel for the ELISA methodology. Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of the rapid test for the diagnosis of dengue at the local level - Morropón-Piura subregion. Methods: In a diagnostic testing study, 245 serum samples from patients from health facilities in the Morropón Health Subregion were analyzed by ELISA and BIOLINE SD rapid test for NS1 antigen and IgM antibodies in the facility's laboratory. Morropón health center. Results: The sensitivity of the rapid test was 68.75% for NS1 and 76.60% for IgM, the overall performance of the test is acceptable. The specificity for NS1 was 79.01% and for IgM was 93.40%, the PPV for both NS1 and IgM were 53.66% and 73.41% individually. Agreement for NS1 was moderate and for IgM was good. With a Cohen's Kappa of 0.44 and 0.69 respectively, for the Likelihood Ratio for both was acceptable. Conclusions: The NS1/IgM parameters of the BIOLINE SD dengue rapid test combining the NS1/IgM parameters have good performance and could be used during outbreaks in low-complexity establishments.
