These evidence-based recommendations will provide practical guidance to clinical laboratories worldwide and underscore the importance of laboratory medicine in our collective response to this unprecedented health crisis. Additional items for considerations, as more evidence becomes available, include antigen testing, test harmonization, point-of-care assays, and quantitative PCR and serological testing.

Abstract

These evidence-based recommendations will provide practical guidance to clinical laboratories worldwide and underscore the importance of laboratory medicine in our collective response to this unprecedented health crisis. Additional items for considerations, as more evidence becomes available, include antigen testing, test harmonization, point-of-care assays, and quantitative PCR and serological testing. The IFCC Taskforce will continue to evaluate the emerging evidence on these other testing paradigms and will develop further recommendations in the near future.
