Objectives

To evaluate the performance of nasal mid-turbinate self-testing using rapid antigen detection tests (RDT) for persons with suspected coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the community. Self-testing for COVID-19 infection with lateral flow assay severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RDT, provides rapid results and could enable frequent and extensive testing in the community, thereby improving the control of SARS-CoV-2.

Methods

Participants visiting a municipal SARS-CoV-2 testing centre, received self-testing kits containing either the BD Veritor System (BD-RDT) or Roche SARS-CoV-2 antigen detection test (Roche-RDT). Oro-nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from the participants for quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) testing. As a proxy for contagiousness, viral culture was performed on a selection of qRT-PCR positive samples to determine the Ct-value at which the chance of a positive culture dropped below 0.5 (Ct-value cut-off). Sensitivity and specificity of self-testing were compared to qRT-PCR with a Ct-value below the Ct value cut-off. Determinants independently associated with a false-negative self-test result were determined.

Results

A total of 3201 participants were included (BD-RDT n = 1595; Roche-RDT n = 1606). Sensitivity and specificity of self-testing compared with the qRT-PCR results with a Ct-value below the Ct-value cut-off were 78.4% (95% CI 73.2%–83.5%) and 99.4% (95% CI 99.1%–99.7%), respectively. A higher age was independently associated with a false-negative self-testing result with an odds ratio of 1.024 (95% CI 1.003–1.044).

Conclusions

Self-testing using currently available RDT has a high specificity and relatively high sensitivity to identify individuals with a high probability of contagiousness.

通过快速抗原检测对社区中疑似 COVID-19 的人进行自我检测以检测 SARS-CoV-2 感染

目标

使用快速抗原检测测试 (RDT) 评估社区中疑似冠状病毒病 2019 (COVID-19) 患者的鼻中鼻甲自检性能。用侧流法检测严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RDT 对 COVID-19 感染进行自我检测,可提供快速结果,并可在社区进行频繁和广泛的检测,从而改善对 SARS-CoV-的控制2.

方法

参观市政 SARS-CoV-2 检测中心的参与者收到了包含 BD Veritor 系统 (BD-RDT) 或罗氏 SARS-CoV-2 抗原检测测试 (Roche-RDT) 的自我检测试剂盒。从参与者那里收集口鼻咽拭子用于定量 RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) 测试。作为传染性的代表,对选择的 qRT-PCR 阳性样品进行病毒培养以确定阳性培养的机会下降到 0.5 以下的 Ct 值(Ct 值截止)。将自检的敏感性和特异性与 Ct 值低于 Ct 值截止值的 qRT-PCR 进行比较。确定了与假阴性自检结果独立相关的决定因素。

结果

共纳入 3201 名参与者(BD-RDT n  = 1595;Roche-RDT n  = 1606)。与 Ct 值临界值以下的 qRT-PCR 结果相比,自检的敏感性和特异性分别为 78.4%(95% CI 73.2%–83.5%)和 99.4%(95% CI 99.1%– 99.7%),分别。较高的年龄与假阴性自我检测结果独立相关,优势比为 1.024(95% CI 1.003-1.044)。

结论

使用目前可用的 RDT 进行自我测试具有较高的特异性和相对较高的敏感性,可以识别具有高传染性的个体。
