Estimate of Clinical Performance

Country Switzerland
Clinical Sensitivity (95% Cl), N 73.2% (58.1, 84.3), 41
Clinical Sensitivity days ≤ 7, N 83.9% (67.4, 92.9), 31
Clinical Sensitivity Ct ≤ 33, N 83.3% (68.1, 92.1), 36
Clinical Sensitivity Ct ≤ 25, N 95.5% (78.2, 99.2), 22
Clinical Specificity (95%, Cl), N 100% (98, 100), 191
Invalid rate (%, n/N) 0% (232/232)

The general sensitivity and specificity of ichroma™ COVID-19 was 73.2%, 100 % respectively. The sensitivity of within seven days of symptom onset is 83.9.% and Ct value 25 or less is 95.5%. Specificity of ichroma™ COVID-19 is 100% and it is important that for screening COVID-19, since 100% specificity means that there will be far less false-positive (normal person is not resulted with patient).
