The use of a LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 Ag Test on the LumiraDx Instruments will enable the physician to verify infection quickly, begin proper treatment and to initiate isolation precautions helping prevent further spread of infection.
The Instrument and Test Strips are integrated with several quality control checks to ensure the Instrument and Test are functioning correctly for every test run.
The workflow process is comprised of a simple sample prep along with step-by-step guidance of the Instrument to report a patient result in under 12 minutes from sample application.
In clinical studies, the LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 antigen test demonstrated 97.6% positive agreement versus RT-PCR in patients tested within 12 days of the onset of symptoms, to enable the physician to verify infection quickly, begin proper treatment and to initiate isolation precautions helping prevent further spread of infection.
