WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
1. For in vitro diagnostic use.
2. In the USA, this test has not been FDA cleared or approved; this test has been authorized by FDA under an EUA for use by
authorized laboratories;
use by laboratories certified under the CLIA, 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet requirements to perform to
perform moderate, high or waived complexity tests and at the Point of Care (POC), i.e., in patient care settings operating
under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver, Certificate of Compliance, or Certificate of Accreditation
3. This test has been authorized only for the detection of proteins from SARSCoV-2, not for any other viruses or pathogens;
and,
in the USA, this test is only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the
authorization of emergency use of in vitro diagnostics for detection and/or diagnosis of the virus that causes COVID-19
under Section 564(b)(1) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3(b)(1), unless the authorization is terminated or revoked sooner
.
4. Do not use this kit beyond the expiration date printed on the outside carton.
5. Do not use the kit to evaluate patient specimens if either the positive control swab or negative control swab fail to give
expected results.
6. Test results are not meant to be visually determined. All test results must be determined using the
BD Veritor Plus Analyzer.
7. To avoid erroneous results, specimens must be processed as indicated in the assay procedure section.
8. Do not reuse any BD Veritor System test device or kit components.
9. When collecting a nasal swab sample, use the nasal swab supplied in the kit. Use of alternative swabs may result in false
negative results.
10. Proper specimen collection, storage and transport are critical to the performance of this test.
11. Specific training or guidance is recommended if operators are not experienced with specimen collection and handling
procedures. Wear protective clothing such as laboratory coats, disposable gloves, and eye protection when specimens
