Standard^™ Q COVID-19 Ag Test 2.0

Results are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigens, which is generally detectable in anterior nasal swab specimens during the acute phase of infection. Positive results indicate the presence of viral antigens, but clinical correlation with patient history and other diagnostic information is necessary to determine infection status. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definitive cause of disease. All negative results are presumptive and may be confirmed with a molecular assay, if necessary, for patient management. Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or patient management decisions, including infection control measures such as isolating from others and wearing masks. Negative results should be considered in the context of an patient’s recent exposures, history, and the presence of clinical signs and symptoms consistent with COVID-19. Testing of anterior nasal swab specimens is limited to laboratories certified under CLIA that meet the requirements to perform moderate, high, or waived complexity tests. This product is authorized for use at the Point of Care (POC), i.e., in patient care settings operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver, Certificate of Compliance, or Certificate of Accreditation.
