The NADAL® RSV Test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in nasopharyngeal aspirates and swabs. This test is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of respiratory tract infections caused by RSV and is designed for professional use only.
RSV is the most common respiratory virus in infants and young children. It infects virtually all children by the age of two. In most children, the virus causes symptoms resembling those of the common cold. In infants born prematurely and/or with chronic lung disease, RSV can cause a severe or even lifethreatening disease. Prior to the introduction of Synagis®, RSV disease resulted annually in over 125,000 hospitalisations. There was a high mortality risk amongst approximately 2% of infants. Symptoms of RSV can include fever, runny nose and other more serious symptoms like coughing, difficult and rapid breathing or wheezing.
