Role of rapid immunochromatographic antigen testing in diagnosis of influenza A virus 2009 H1N1 infection.
Journal of Clinical Microbiology 2010 January
Rapid antigen testing using immunochromatographic devices has become a diagnostic mainstay for detection of influenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus, the two major viruses infecting the respiratory tract. Recent studies have indicated that poor performance in the detection of the novel influenza A virus 2009 H1N1 should preclude their use. A survey of influenza diagnostic methods available on ClinMicroNet and Division C, the two ASM list servers, revealed that, despite this reported poor performance, a majority of the laboratories surveyed intend to continue to offer this testing during the current influenza season. Our two experts have been asked to consider the following question: what is the role of rapid immunochromatographic antigen testing in the laboratory diagnosis of influenza A virus infection during the current 2009 H1N1 pandemic?
