“…However, none of the false-negative samples in our study had observed deviations from the optimal sampling procedure, therefore, though self-collection is not recommended by the supplier and could have introduced variability, this is unlikely to have been the case. Also, recent data from other studies comparing observed self-and professional-swab sampling shows this to be unlikely as a source of large variability (16).…”

“…Investigators can further explore the use of self-sampling, which is one of the potential directions Ag RDT testing will take because it does not require trained personnel, reduces infection risk for the healthcare worker who takes the swab sample, and enables testing for a wider population. Studies indicate that self-sampling is somewhat less precise than sampling by trained professionals, further lowering detection rate ( 11 ); evaluation studies are ongoing.…”
