Read the full statement (300 words)

The BD Veritor m System for Rapid Detection of Flu A+B is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the direct and qualitative detection of influenza A and 8 viral nucleoprotein antigens from nasal and nasopharyngeal swabs of symptomatic patients. The BID Veritor System for Rapid Detection of Flu A+B3 (also referred to as the SID Veritor System and BD Veritor System Flu A+B) is a differentiated test, such that influenza A viral antigens can be distinguished from influenza B viral antigens from a single processed sample using a single device. The test isto be used as an aid inthe diagnosis of influenza A and B viral infections. A negative test is presumptive and it is recommended that these results be confirmed by viral culture or an FDA-cleared influenza A and B molecular assay. Negative test results do not preclude influenza viral infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. The test is not intended to detect influenza C antigens.

Performance characteristics for Influenza Aand B were established during January through March of 2011 when influenza viruses A/2009 HiNi, A/H3N2, S/Victoria lineage, and 5/Yamagata lineage were the predominant influenza viruses in circulation according to the Morbidity and Modtality Weekly Report from the CDC entitled "Update: Influenza Activity-United States, 2010-2011 Season, and Composition of the 2011-2012 Influenza Vaccine." Performance characteristics may vary against other emerging influenza viruses.

If infection with a novel influenza 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 far novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to the state or local health department for testing. Virus 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.
