The

still
widely
used
in

in

countries

Often
,
specific
chemotherapy
is
administered
based
on
a
single

Interpretation
of
a

Widal
test
,
in
turn
,
depends
on
the
baseline

the
local

area
.
Hence
,
we
aimed

find
out
the

A
single
blood
sample
was
collected
from
hospital
outpatients
with

the
patients
being
aged
above
18
years
and
residing
in
Wayanad
district
continuously
for
at
least
5
years
.
The
test
was
performed
according
to
the
Widal
test
kit
manufacturer
's
instructions
and
interpreted
using
standard
guidelines
.
The
baseline
titre
for
Anti
TO
,
TH
,
AH
and
BH
agglutinins
in
our
area
was
found
to
be
