Vasoo S et al. – The authors found that the sensitivities of 3 rapid influenza antigen tests for pandemic influenza A/H1N1 virus were low to moderate: BD Directigen EZ Flu A+B test, 46.7%; BinaxNOW Influenza A&B, 38.3%; and QuickVue Influenza A+B Test, 53.3%. A patient with influenza–like illness who has a negative rapid antigen test result should undergo further testing using reverse–transcription polymerase chain reaction.
