## Indications for use
The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is an in vitro diagnostic test, using isothermal amplification technology (helicase-dependent amplification, HDA), for the qualitative detection and differentiation of herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2, and varicella-zoster virus DNA isolated and purified from cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion samples obtained from symptomatic patients suspected of active herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and/or varicella-zoster infection. The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is intended to aid in the diagnosis of herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and varicella-zoster virus active cutaneous or mucocutaneous infections. Negative results do not preclude herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and varicella-zoster virus infections and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions. The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is intended for use only with the Solana® instrument. Warning: The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is not intended for use with cerebrospinal fluid or to aid in the diagnosis of HSV or VZV infections of the central nervous system (CNS). The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is not intended for use in prenatal screening.
