Antigen

COVID - 19 Rapid Test

The COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test is the rapid test for the detection of active infection by the COVID-19 coronavirus with a detection sensitivity of 93%.

It is a direct test and detects the virus itself during the period of infection, from about the 5th day after the first contact.

With data showing that the infection can be asymptomatic in up to 80% of cases, the use of the test is primarily for preventive purposes, and secondarily for diagnostic purposes.

As a prevention test*is used in asymptomatic patients for :

  1. prophylaxis of familiar persons
  2. safe gathering of large groups of people ( camps )

* It is necessary to calculate the time of 5 days required after possible contact with the virus, for the possibility of effective detection of the virus. For example, a newcomer to the country from abroad - without symptoms - should be tested after a five-day quarantine, so that the period of travel is included as a detection time.

As a diagnostic test, used to evaluate symptoms

  1. cold ( fever - cough - sniffles )
  2. sudden cachexia
  3. secondary infection syndromes such as diarrhoea - loss of smell - taste

.

POSITIVE EFFECT

Due to the very high specificity, the positive result is considered TRULY POSITIVE

NEGATIVE EFFECT

Due to the relatively high sensitivity, we recommend that a negative result be confirmed by the corresponding molecular detection test in cases of

  1. Symptoms
  2. dangerous contact with a confirmed case
  3. doubt of the negative result
  1. No kind of preparation is required
  2. Sampling is done by simply taking throat fluid using a special cotton swab, in a bloodless - and non-disruptive - way.
  3. A telephone appointment is required for the preparation of the space and the staff - It is not possible by simply coming to the laboratory
  4. Appointments take place between 11:00 -13:00 on weekdays
  5. As a precautionary measure, in non-infected persons, a minute sample is taken in a specially designed area of the laboratory
  6. For diagnostic purposes in people with symptoms, exclusively at home in well-ventilated - outdoor areas

Result: 20 minutes after taking the sample.
