    Mr. Ketan Pandey, a 22-year-old male, was tested for COVID-19 via a nasopharyngeal swab. The SARS-CoV-2 RNA RT-PCR test returned a negative result, meaning that RNA specific to SARS-CoV-2 was not detected in the sample. However, the report notes that a negative result does not rule out the possibility of COVID-19 infection and that mutations, inhibitors, or insufficient viral load could impact the test result. It is recommended to correlate the negative test with clinical findings and consider repeating the test with a lower respiratory tract sample for patients with severe or progressive respiratory symptoms.

    RESULT COMMENTS
    POSITIVE RNA Specific to SARS-CoV-2 Detected
    NEGATIVE RNA Specific to SARS-CoV-2 Not Detected
    INCONCLUSIVE No result can be conclude. This could be due to low viral load or presence of
    inhibitors in the sample. A repeat sample is recommended in such cases.
    TEST NAME RESULT
    SARS COV-2 RNA RT PCR NOT DETECTED
    COVID-19 Virus QUALITATIVE (NEGATIVE)
    Method: Real Time RT Polymerase chain Reaction (RT-PCR)
    Gene CT Value
    E-Gene -
    RdRp+N-Gene -
    INTERPRETATION:

    NOTE:
    1. ICMR REGISTRATION NUMBER FOR COVID-19 is GDICPLD.
    2. Negative result does not rule out the possibility of COVID-19 infection in humans. Any mutation, presence of inhibitors or insufficient RNA
    specific to SARS- CoV-2 can impact the test result. Kindly correlate the test result with clinical finding. A negative result in a single upper
    respiratory tract sample does not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection. Hence in such cases a repeat sample should be sent. Lower respiratory tract

    sample such as Sputum, Endotracheal (ET) Secretion and Broncho-aveolar lavage (BAL) are appropriate sample; especially in severe and
    progressive respiratory and lung disease.
    3. COVID-19 Test conducts as per RT-PCR kits approved by DGCI/CE-IVD.
    4. Test conducted on Nasopharyngeal and Oropharyngeal Swabs.
    5. The result of this test must be consulted with referring Physician/ Authorized hospitals for appropriate follow up.
    6. Target genes specific for SARS-COV-2 included in the assay are:-E gene, N gene and RdRp gene.
    7. Load of assay: -6 copies/ml (Genomic Copy equivalents)/Reaction.
    8. *Test is done on BIO-RAD CFX96-IVD, REAL TIME PCR System and Automated RNA Extractor.
