Application of antigen detection for isolated observers

The relevant management departments (such as communities, villages and towns, isolation points, etc.) shall organize and manage the personnel in the home isolation observation, close contact and sub close contact, entry isolation observation, closure control area and control area. During the isolation and observation period, nucleic acid testing shall be carried out according to the requirements of the current prevention and control program, and antigen self testing shall be carried out once a day in the first five days.

(1) Main conditions to be met. Isolation and observation personnel shall meet the following conditions at the same time for antigen detection:

1. Establish antigen self-test management process, including antigen test reagent receiving, personnel information checking, test process supervision, and result reporting.

2. Isolation and observation personnel shall carefully read the instructions, and conduct sampling, sample adding, result interpretation and other operations in accordance with the specified requirements and procedures; Conditional management departments shall supervise and manage the testing process to ensure that the testing results are authentic.

3. Do a good job of waste disposal. The sampling swabs, sampling tubes, test cards, etc. used for testing, regardless of whether the results are negative or positive, are put into sealed bags for management personnel to refer to medical waste or dispose according to procedures.

(2) Disposal of test results. If the antigen test is positive, nucleic acid test shall be conducted immediately to confirm.

(3) Preparation of testing reagents. The management department organizing isolation observation (such as communities, villages and towns, isolation points, etc.) is responsible for the procurement, distribution, management and other related work of antigen detection reagents.

Application of antigen detection in community residents

Community residents who need self testing can purchase antigen testing reagents for self testing through retail pharmacies, online sales platforms and other channels.

(1) Matters needing attention. In order to ensure the quality of sampling and detection, residents need to carefully read the instructions and conduct standardized sampling, sample adding, result interpretation and other operations according to the specified requirements and procedures.

(2) Disposal of test results.panodyne antigen test kit supplier - UDXBIO

1. If the antigen test is positive, regardless of whether there are respiratory tract, fever and other symptoms, the residents should immediately report to their communities (villages and towns). The communities (villages and towns) should contact the emergency department, and the rescue center should transfer the residents to the medical institutions with fever clinics for nucleic acid testing in accordance with the guidelines for the transfer of personnel related to the new coronal pneumonia epidemic. The sampling swabs, sampling tubes, test cards, etc. used by the positive personnel are put into sealed bags and transferred to medical institutions for disposal as medical waste.

2. If the antigen test is negative, asymptomatic residents can closely observe and conduct antigen test or nucleic acid test when necessary; For residents with symptoms, it is recommended to go to the medical institutions with fever clinics as soon as possible for nucleic acid testing; If it is inconvenient to see a doctor, you should isolate yourself at home, avoid going out, and conduct an antigen self-test every day for 5 consecutive days.

Confirmation of nucleic acid test

Nucleic acid detection is the diagnostic basis of neocoronavirus infection. In the process of nucleic acid test confirmation, if nucleic acid test is positive, no matter whether the antigen test result is positive or negative, corresponding measures shall be taken according to patients infected with new coronavirus or diagnosed with new coronavirus pneumonia; If the nucleic acid test is negative but the antigen test is positive, it will be regarded as a new coronavirus infected person to take measures such as centralized isolation, close observation and continuous nucleic acid test.

Personnel training, publicity and education

In the process of applying antigen detection, all localities should do a solid job in training medical personnel in grassroots medical and health institutions, so that they can fully grasp the characteristics and operating points of antigen detection, ensure that the detection results are accurate and reliable, and promote and educate patients and residents about antigen detection. When conducting antigen self-test, the public should carefully follow the relevant basic requirements and procedures, and conduct nucleic acid testing to confirm if necessary.
