SARS-CoV2 (COVID-19) Real Time RT PCR Test

Type of Sample : Nasopharyngeal Oropharyngeal


Method : RT PCR
PCR Kit : PerkinElmer_Coronavirus_Detection_Kit
N gene : Not Detected
ORF Gene : Not Detected

Test Description Result


SARS CoV2 RNA, PCR* NEGATIVE

ICMR Approved testing center for RT-PCR.


ICMR Reg. No. - VLNKTN
No. 1159, (Old No. 253), K/1, K.P Road, Nagercoil - 629 003, Tamilnadu, India

Test Interpretation:
• A 'Positive' result indicates SARS-CoV-2 RNA is detected from the patient's specimen by this assay.
• A 'Negative' result indicates SARS-CoV-2 RNA is not detected from the patient's specimen by this assay.

Instrument Used:
• Qiagen Rotorgene Q / Roche Lightcycler 480 II.
Note:
• Negative results do not preclude SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for patient management decisions.
• The report represents only the specimen received in the laboratory. Kindly correlate clinically.
• The COVID-19 RT-PCR test is a real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test for the qualitative detection of
nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in upper and lowers respiratory specimens.
• ICMR has recommended not to rely on numerical Ct values for determining infectiousness of COVID-19 patients and deciding patient m
anagement protocols citing the following explanations.
Analytical Performance Characteristics
• The tests performance standards of 100% Sensitivity and 99% Specificity.
• The Limit of Detection (LoD) is 1 copy/μL or 20 copies/reaction volume for each viral target (N & ORF 1ab).

Interpreting Diagnostic Tests for SARS-CoV-2


JAMA. 2020;323(22):2249-2251. doi:10.1001/jama.2020.8259

Estimated Variation Over Time in Diagnostic Tests for Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Infection Relative to Symptom
Onset

Estimated time intervals and rates of viral detection are based on data from several published reports.
Because of variability in values among studies, estimated time intervals should be considered approximations
and the probability of detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection is presented qualitatively.

A. Detection only occurs if patients are followed up proactively from the time of exposure.
B. More likely to register a negative than a positive result by PCR of a nasopharyngeal swab
