COVID-19 Severe Disease Progression Risk Profile
Use
Comprehensive panel for the assessment of patients at risk of severe COVID-19 disease progression
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
The Interleukin-6 test in this profile is not FDA approved but is authorized for use under an EUA for identifying severe inflammatory response related to COVID-19. It should be used in conjunction with existing clinical findings to assess risk accurately. There are risks of false positives leading to unnecessary intensive care and false negatives potentially delaying necessary treatments. Extremely high antibody titers may interfere with certain components of this panel, although minimization strategies are built into the test design.
