Hello- although vdrl and rpr tests are excellent screens for syphilis, false-positive reactions do occur. A positive vdrl or rpr test must be confirmed with an fta-abs test. Patients with positive serologic tests should have a thorough physical examination to determine the stage of syphilis. A patient with a low-titer vdrl or rpr may have active disease and may require lumbar puncture to rule out neurosyphilis.
