Validation and Implementation of Pooled Testing Protocol for SARS-CoV-2 RTPCR: a strategy to counter delays in COVID-19 diagnosis

2023-08-03

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) laid guidelines for pooled testing of SARS-CoV-2 in areas with low prevalence (< 5%) due to high cost and turn-around time of PCR test. This study evaluated sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of pooled testing guidelines laid out by ICMR and performed the cost benefit analysis of the strategy. METHODS...
