Test Overview
H1N1, or swine flu, is a viral infection impacting the respiratory system. While often mild and self-resolving, it can pose serious risks, especially for young children, the elderly, or those with weakened immune systems. Symptoms include fever, muscle pain, chills, sweats, headache, and shortness of breath.
Accurate diagnosis is crucial, and nucleic acid detection tests like PCR are recommended when clinically necessary and meeting epidemiological criteria. Real-time PCR, specifically, is a highly effective method for detecting H1N1 RNA. This involves collecting a swab sample from the patient and testing it using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology. Real-time PCR's sensitivity enables early identification of the virus, even before symptoms appear. Samples undergo rigorous retesting using various techniques to ensure precision. With real-time PCR, H1N1 can be swiftly identified and managed, curbing its potential spread.
