CareStart COVID-19 Antigen Home Test is intended to aid the diagnosis of COVID-19 in symptomatic patients and for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigens. This test is authorised for home use in individuals:

Aged 12 years or older
Aged 2 – 11 who will have their test supervised by a parent or legal guardian
Who have experienced covid like symptoms within the last 5 days
The test must be used with the nasal swab provided in the kit.

Each test can only be used once
Test results must be read at 10 minutes and no later than 15 minutes
Interpretation of any result after 15 minutes may yield inaccurate test results
If you receive a positive result, you must immediately seek a laboratory PCR test and follow-up care
A positive result cannot determine whether you are infectious
False-negative results are more likely to occur if the test is performed after 5 days of symptom onset
False negatives are more likely to occur in the later phase of infection and in asymptomatic individuals
A negative result does not rule out infection with another type of respiratory virus.
Negative results should be treated as presumptive only and may not mean you are not infectious. If you are experiencing any COVID symptoms you must
seek immediate further laboratory PCR testing and follow up clinical care.
Repeat testing is recommended (between 24-48 hours after your first test) if there is an ongoing suspicion of infection, being in a high-risk setting or where
there is an occupational risk or other requirements.
