The test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of Influenza A, Influenza B, and RSV in humans and is not intended to detect Influenza C. Negative results do not preclude Influenza virus or RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. Conversely, positive results do not rule-out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. Performance characteristics for Influenza A were established during the 2013-2014 and the 2014-2015 influenza seasons when Influenza A/H3 and A/H1N1 pandemic were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. When other Influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens. en The cobas® Influenza A/B & RSV Nucleic acid test for use on the cobas® Liat® System (cobas® Influenza A/B & RSV) is an automated multiplex real-time RT-PCR assay for the rapid in vitro qualitative detection and discrimination of Influenza A virus, Influenza B virus and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) RNA in nasopharyngeal swab specimens from patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors.The test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of Influenza A, Influenza B, and RSV in humans and is not intended to detect Influenza C.

The cobas® Influenza A/B & RSV Nucleic acid test for use on the cobas® Liat® System is intended for professional use in a clinical laboratory setting or point-of-care (POC) location. en The cobas® Liat® Influenza A/B & RSV assay is an automated in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of Influenza A, Influenza B, and RSV RNA in nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens. The sample-to-result time is ~20 minutes. The test is performed on the Analyzer which automates and integrates sample purification, nucleic acid amplification, and detection of the target sequence in biological samples using real-time PCR assays. The assay targets a well-conserved region of the matrix gene of Influenza A (Inf A target), the non-structure protein gene of Influenza B (Inf B target), and the matrix gene of RSV (RSV target). An Internal Process Control (IPC) is also included. The IPC is present to control for adequate processing of the target virus through all steps of the assay process and to monitor the presence of inhibitors in the RT-PCR processes. The System consists of an instrument and preloaded software for running tests and viewing the results. The system requires the use of a single-use disposable cobas® Influenza A/B & RSV assay tube that holds the nucleic acid purification and RT-PCR reagents, and hosts the sample preparation and RT-PCR processes. en
