Interpretation of Result
Result Remarks

Detected SARS-CoV-2 Positive

Not Detected SARS-CoV-2 Negative

Inconclusive A repeat testing on fresh sample is recommended

A single negative test result, particularly if this from an upper respiratory tract specimen, does not exclude infection. False Negative results may be
seen in samples collected too early or late in the clinical course of the infection. Close monitoring of symptoms and retesting may be considered, as
per clinical evaluation. The repeat specimen may be considered after a gap of 2-4 days after the collection of the first specimen for additional
testing, if required.

TEST ATTRIBUTES AND LIMITATION


1. Sample must be received at the laboratory under appropriate condition within 48 hours of collection to ensure preservation of viral RNA.
2. Negative result does not rule out the possibility of COVID-19 infection. Presence of inhibitors, mutations and insufficient organisms RNA
can influence the result. False Negative result may be seen in samples collected too early are too late in the clinical course of the infection.
Kindly refer to the latest ICMR guidelines.
3. A single negative test result, particularly if this from an upper respiratory tract specimen does not exclude infection. A positive alternate
pathogen does not necessarily rule out COVID-19 infection, as little is yet known about to role of co-infections.
4. Repeat sampling and testing of lower respiratory specimen in strongly recommended in severe or progressive disease. The repeat
specimen may be considered after a gap of 2-4 days after the collection of the first specimen for additional testing if required.

Test if done on: Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR)-Alta 48.
