Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence and quantity of Adenovirus and Boca Virus genetic material. Interpretation should be done by a healthcare provider in conjunction with clinical symptoms.
📊

Not Detected

No viral genetic material found; infection unlikely or below detection limit.

📊

Low Viral Load

Possible early infection or resolving infection; clinical correlation needed.

📊

High Viral Load

Active infection likely; may indicate severe disease or need for treatment adjustment.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment, or if results show high viral load, consult an infectious disease specialist for further management.

Limitations

  • False negatives possible if viral load is very low
  • Cannot distinguish between active and past infections without clinical context
  • Limited to detection of Adenovirus and Boca Virus only

Risks & Considerations

  • Minor discomfort from swab collection
  • Rare risk of nosebleed or gagging
  • No significant risks associated with blood-based samples if applicable

Interfering Factors

  • Improper sample collection or storage
  • Contamination during transport
  • Recent antiviral therapy affecting viral detection
  • Low viral load near detection limit
