The CareStart™ COVID-19 Antigen is a type of test called an antigen test. Antigen tests are designed to detect proteins from the virus that causes COVID-19 in nasopharyngeal or anterior nasal swab samples collected by a healthcare provider.
Testing of your specimen(s) will help find out if you may have COVID-19.
If you have a positive test result with the CareStart™ COVID-19 Antigen test, it is very likely that you have COVID-19 because proteins from the virus that causes COVID-19 were found in your sample. Therefore, it is also likely that you may be placed in isolation to avoid spreading the virus to others. You should follow CDC guidance to reduce the potential transmission of disease.
Eighty-three percent of adults and 87% of children were asymptomatic. CareStart sensitivity/specificity were 84.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 71.1–93.7)/97.2% (95% CI, 92.0–99.4) and 85.7% (95% CI, 42.1–99.6)/89.5% (95% CI, 66.9–98.7) in adults and children, respectively, within 5 days of symptoms.
