LaboratoryRespiratory pathogens DNA and RNA panel - Lower respiratory specimen by NAA with probe detection
Definition
This panel is used to report the results for molecular respiratory viral and bacterial pathogen testing in lower respiratory specimens. This panel was created for, but is not limited in use to, the submitter's test kit, Verigene Respiratory Pathogens Flex Nucleic Acid Test (RP Flex), a multiplexed qualitative test for the detection and identification of multiple viral and bacterial nucleic acids. Pathogens detected include Influenza A and B viruses, Parainfluenzavirus 1 through 4, Adenovirus B+C+E, Bocavirus 1+2+3, Human coronaviruses, Respiratory syncytial virus A and B, Rhinovirus, Enterovirus A+B+C, and Metapneumovirus, as well as Bordetella pertussis, parapertussis and holmesii.
