Read the full statement (216 words)
The Quidel Molecular Influenza A+B3 assay is a multiplex Real Time RT-PCR assay for the in vitro qualitative detection and differentiation of influenza A and influenza B viral RNA in nasal and nasopharyngeal swabs from patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection. This test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A and influenza B viral infections in humans in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. The assay does not detect the presence of influenza C virus.
Negative results do not preclude Influenza virus infection and' should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other patient management decisions.
Performance characteristics for influenza A were established during the 2010-2011 influenza season when influenza A/H3 and 2009 HiNI influenza were the predominant influenza A viruses in circulation. When other influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary.
If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture .should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
