The LIAISON NES FLU A/B, RSV & COVID-19 assay is a real-time RT-PCR assay intended for use on the LIAISON NES instrument for the simultaneous in vitro qualitative detection and differentiation of nucleic acid from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), influenza A (Flu A) virus, influenza B (Flu B) virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in anterior nasal swab specimens from individuals with signs and symptoms of respiratory…
Read the full statement (244 words)
The LIAISON NES FLU A/B, RSV & COVID-19 assay is a real-time RT-PCR assay intended for use on the LIAISON NES instrument for the simultaneous in vitro qualitative detection and differentiation of nucleic acid from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), influenza A (Flu A) virus, influenza B (Flu B) virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in anterior nasal swab specimens from individuals with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection. Clinical signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection due to SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, influenza B, and RSV can be similar.
The LIAISON NES FLU A/B, RSV & COVID-19 assay is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, influenza B, and RSV infections when used in conjunction with other clinical and epidemiological information, and laboratory findings. SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, influenza B, and RSV viral RNA are generally detectable in anterior nasal swab specimens during the acute phase of infection. This test is not intended to detect influenza C virus infections.
Positive results are indicative of the presence of the identified virus, but do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other pathogens not detected by the test. The agent(s) detected by the LIAISON NES FLU A/B, RSV & COVID-19 assay may not be the definite cause of the disease. Negative results do not preclude SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, influenza B or RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for patient management decisions.
