About this study

The Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay is a real-time PCR test intended for use on the Q-POC instrument for the qualitative detection of nucleic acids from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), in nasal mid-turbinate swabs (MTSW) obtained from individuals suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider. Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet requirements to perform high complexity or moderate complexity tests.

The Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay is intended for use by laboratory personnel who have received specific training on the use of the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay in conjunction with the Q-POC instrument (Q29001).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Participants must be over the age of 18 years.
  • Participants must present with symptoms indicative of SARS-CoV-2 infection, within 0-5 days of symptom onset.
  • Participants must have capacity to give informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

  • Participant is under the age of 18 years.
  • Participant does not have symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
  • Participant lacks capacity to give informed consent.

Treatment and study plan

RT-PCR Test

Diagnostic Test

High sensitivity RT-PCR COVID-19 Test. A healthcare professional will take a sample per subject for the comparator test, following the manufacturer's Instructions For Use (IFU) in one nostril.

Real-time PCR Test

Diagnostic Test

Mid-turbinate nasal swab samples will be taken from the opposite nostril that was not swabbed for the comparator sample using Copan FLOQ swabs and placed into MSwab buffer. In instances where opposite nostrils cannot be swabbed for both the comparator and the candidate tests, a 15-minute waiting period to allow for viral reloading will occur before collecting the candidate test sample.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Positive Results on Both the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay and the RT-PCR Comparator Test

    Time frame: One hour

    The acceptance criteria for this study is Positive Percent Agreement (PPA) greater than or equal to 95% in a comparison between the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 assay and the RT-PCR comparator test results

  2. Number of Participants With Negative Results on Both the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay and the RT-PCR Comparator Test

    Time frame: One hour

    The acceptance criteria for this study is a Negative Percent Agreement (NPA) greater than or equal to 98% in a comparison between the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 assay and the RT-PCR comparator test results.
