Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The current prospective study was designed to assess the diagnostic specificity and sensitivity of a novel antigen-based rapid detection test (COVID-VIRO®) on nasopharyngeal specimens in comparison to the reference test in a real-life setting

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Two nasopharyngeal swab specimens will be concurrently collected on:

* adult patients hospitalized in the Infectious Diseases Department of the Centre Hospitalier Régional d'Orléans (CHRO) for confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection,
* or symptomatic or asymptomatic subjects voluntarily accessing the COVID-19 Screening Department of the CHRO to perform a diagnostic test. COVID VIRO® diagnostic.

Specificity and sensitivity are assessed in comparison to real-time RT-qPCR results.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Two concurrent nasopharyngeal swab specimens are collected for each participant. Comparison between RT-qPCR and COVID-VIRO® results of RT-qPCR positive patients is used to assess COVID-VIRO® sensitivity. Conversely, comparison between RT-qPCR and COVID-VIRO® results of RT-qPCR negative patients is used to assess COVID-VIRO® specificity.
Primary Study Purpose

DIAGNOSTIC
