Gibson J, et al. - Authors here assess the performance characteristics of cobas Influenza A/B & RSV assay through a multi–site study consisting of different point of care testing environments. Observations demonstrate the assay as a rapid, sensitive Point of Care Testing (POCT) for the detection of influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) viruses, and it provides laboratory–quality PCR–based diagnostic results in point of care settings.
