Test Name Result

SARS-CoV-2 viral Ribonucleic Acid Reverse Transcription- Polymerase Chain Reaction ( Qualitative Detection)
MOLECULAR LABORATORY

Referring Health Facility DE LOS SANTOS MEDICAL CENTER


Date & Time Collected 08/28/2021; 11:00:00
Specimen Number 21-46219
Specimen Type NPS/OPS (Nasopharyngeal and Oropharyngeal Swab)
Result SARS-CoV-2 RNA NOT DETECTED
Interpretation NEGATIVE FOR SARS CoV-2

REMARKS: Please correlate this result with clinical and radiologic data.

METHODOLOGY: Ribonucleic acid (RNA) extraction was performed, and followed by Reverse
Transcription- Polymerase Chain Reaction amplification and detection of SARS-CoV-2 viral
genome targets. Positive and negative controls are included in each run to ensure validity
and accuracy.

SIGNIFICANCE: This test is a qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 extracted from


nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs, sputum, and lower respiratory tract samples from
patients.

LIMITATIONS: The detection of viral Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is influenced by viral load
present in the sample, and thus sensitivity may vary depending on the course of the
disease. Pre-analytic variables, such as but are not limited to specimen collection and
quality, handling, and transport condition may likewise affect the results. The limit of
detection of the kit used is 200 copies/mL.

The performance characteristics of this laboratory-developed test has been validated


by the Section of Molecular Pathology, and is continuously being monitored by the
laboratory as part of its quality assurance procedures.
