Device Description

A collection of reagents and other associated materials intended to be used for the qualitative and/or quantitative detection of nucleic acid from multiple virus genera associated with respiratory diseases in a clinical specimen, using a nucleic acid technique (NAT). Viruses intended to be detected may include respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza viruses, parainfluenza viruses, human metapneumovirus, coronaviruses, enteroviruses, rhinoviruses and/or adenoviruses. This test is commonly used in the laboratory or in point-of-care analyses. It is not intended to be used for self-testing.
