SARS‑CoV‑2 RNA (COVID‑19) and Respiratory Pathogen Panel, Qualitative NAAT
Also known as: Parainfluenza, Novel Coronavirus, Adenovirus, Wuhan, COVID19
Use
This qualitative NAAT enables simultaneous detection of SARS‑CoV‑2 (COVID‑19) and a broad range of respiratory pathogens from a single specimen, facilitating differential diagnosis of respiratory infections and guiding early treatment decisions. This approach improves diagnostic efficiency, reduces patient discomfort, and aids antimicrobial stewardship by distinguishing viral etiologies, including viruses and bacterial pathogens that present with similar symptoms.
