<jats:sec><jats:title>Background</jats:title><jats:p> Accurate and rapid testing for SARS-COV-2 antibodies could improve the diagnosis and management of COVID-19. In this study, we aim to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a commercially available point-of-care lateral flow kit independently and in comparison to an established platform-based system. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method</jats:title><jats:p> Samples from 144 PCR-confirmed COVID-19 cases and 130 pre-pandemic negative controls were tested in parallel by MP Rapid 2019-NCOV IgM/IgG Combo test and Roche Elecsys. Comparison of results based on serum and capillary blood testing was undertaken. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p> Sensitivity at day 15 onwards was 100% for both methods. Between days 1 and 7 post admission, the IgM/IgG Combo test and Roche Elecsys shown sensitivity of 74% (95% CI: 62%-85%) vs. 67% (95% CI: 55%–79%, P = 0.3947). Combo test specificities were 100% for IgG, 98.5% for IgM vs. Roche Elecsys specificity of 100%. Concordance analysis showed 98.5% agreement to the Roche Elecsys method (Cohen’s Kappa 0.96 95% CI [0.92–0.99]). Capillary blood results showed complete agreement with serum samples using the Combo test. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion</jats:title><jats:p> In comparison to Roche Elecsys, our data show that the MP Rapid 2019-NCOV IgM/IgG Combo test provides a high-confidence assay system for the detection of previous exposure to SARS-COV-2 infection with advantage of affording near-patient testing. </jats:p></jats:sec> | |
