Fysiotest performs corona tests for ongoing infection, antibodies as well as risk group analysis.

The health care service today carries out tests on people with disease symptoms. A proactive survey of the infection situation in workplaces creates a basis for making the right decision for the business and can thus have a positive effect on financial results and KPIs.
Fysiotest also issues travel certificates for travelers. We cooperate with coronapassport.se where the latest information is available.

About issuing travel documents

Many countries require that entrants be tested negative for covid-19, but the rules are not uniform and may change at short notice. The journey becomes challenging and associated with the risk of not arriving, or ending up in quarantine.

Some countries approve antigen tests, others require that the analysis of the PCR test be performed by a laboratory accredited according to ISO 17025 or ISO 15189. At www.coronapassport.se you will find updated information, country by country, which is available from the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and IATA.

Fysiotest offers PCR and antigen tests for ongoing infection, antibody tests after infection and issues certificates according to the requirements of each country.

 

Response time for rapid tests for antigen and antibodies is approximately 15 minutes. You get the result for your PCR and quantitative antibody test 1-2 days after your test (analysis response may take longer during weekends).

    Explanation and purpose of different test methods

    The Public Health Agency of Sweden recommends that all staff who have cold symptoms stay at home until they have been completely healthy for at least two days. By regularly testing employees against the virus, you can maintain a higher capacity and get employees back more quickly after illness.

    PCR-TEST

    - for current infection

    About the test

    Current “gold standard” to diagnose current infection. It responds to low virus levels and even virus residues. The analysis is performed in an accredited laboratory: Life Genomics AB.

     

    Response time

    1-2 days from the completed test to the result.

     

    Quality

    High specificity and sensitivity – where the sensitivity usually depends on how sick the patient is (i.e. how much virus the patient has in the body).

    Areas of use

    For testing people with ongoing symptoms.

    ANTIGEN TEST

    - for active infection

    About the test

    Good to use for wider screening as an extra precautionary measure to minimize the risk of infection entering the workplace.

    Quick and easy test that detects active infection. Measures the existence of the surface protein of the Sars-Cov-19 virus. The test is manufactured by Abbot and used by i.a. Skåne Region.

     

    Response time

    15 minutes

     

    Quality

    The sensitivity and specificity of the latest antigen tests are comparable to PCR testing.

     

    Areas of use

    Complement to PCR for screening in workplaces and in situations where large groups need to be tested quickly.

     

    Extra precautionary measures to existing measures and recommendations to further reduce the risk of spread.

    ANTIBODY TEST

    - for past infection

    About the test

    Used to detect if a person has had the infection and has antibodies in their blood. Thus, the person has built up a certain immunity and protection against re-infection. The test comes from Noviral AB.

     

    Response time

    15 minutes

     

    Quality

    High specificity and sensitivity.

     

    Areas of use

    Used for screening for antibodies in asymptomatic employees for providing the company with information to limit the spread of infection in the workplace.

    ANTIBODY TEST

    - analysis of the amount of antibodies in case of past infection

    About the test

    Used to detect the amount of antibodies in the blood after infection or vaccination. Answered numerically in units according to WHO standard. Note that the level of antibodies that confer immunity to covid-19 is not clear, however, but the larger the amount of antibodies, the better the protection. The analysis takes place at an accredited laboratory: Unilabs AB

    Response time

    1-2 days from the completed test to the result.

     

    Quality

    High specificity and sensitivity.

     

    Areas of use

    Used for screening for antibodies in asymptomatic employees for providing the company with information to limit the spread of infection in the workplace.

    More information on testing for Covid-19

    • Where is the sample taken?

      Sampling takes place preferably in your company’s premises with applied restrictions.

    • How is the test performed?

      To minimize the spread of infection during the sampling, we follow the National Board of Health and Welfare’s and the Public Health Agency’s recommendations regarding sampling. We invite each employee to individual times to make sure that queue formation is minimized.

       The test is performed at the workplace in a room where only two people are allowed to stay at the same time. Employees with symptoms are not accepted but are referred to healthcare.

    • How safe is the test?

      PCR-tests

      Senstitivity: 100%
      Specificity:   97,73%

      Antigen tests

      Sensitivity: 96,52%
      Specificity: 99,62%

      Antibody tests

      Senstitivity: Ig-M 100% & Ig-G 100%
      Specificity:   Ig-M 100% & Ig-G 99,2%

       

      Sensitivity is the proportion of true positive results that the test correctly identifies as positive.

      The specificity is the proportion of true negative results that the test correctly indicates as negative.
