Study Summary

This trial tests a new test for respiratory viruses that compares to other existing tests.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 2 or older with symptoms like fever, cough, fatigue, or loss of taste/smell. They must be within a week of symptom onset and suspected by a doctor to have a respiratory viral infection. Those who've had certain nasal procedures, nosebleeds, antiviral treatments for flu or COVID-19 recently can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Panbio™ COVID-19/Flu A&B Panel is being tested to see how well it identifies infections compared to established tests (Roche cobas® & Quidel Lyra®). It's used on nasal swabs from symptomatic patients to detect the presence of respiratory viruses.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves diagnostic testing rather than medication administration, there are no direct side effects from the intervention itself. However, discomfort or minor bleeding from the nasal swab could occur.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Experimental: Nasal sampling/Testing (professional use)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Operator or delegated study staff will collect one anterior nasal swab sample from both nostrils. The collected anterior nasal swab will the tested with the Panbio™ COVID-19/Flu A&B Panel by the operator at the study site in a near patient testing setting (e.g. GP center or hospital clinic). After the anterior nasal swab is collected, the operator or delegated study staff will collect one anterior nasal swab from both nostrils of the subject for RT-PCR testing. VTM samples will be shipped daily to the central lab for testing with the RT-PCR protocols for Flu A, Flu B and SARS-CoV-2.
