Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to see the comparison of effectiveness of rapid antigen testing with reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) Coronavirus Disease 2019 at medical check up patient at laboratory in Jakarta Research Methodology: This research is an analytical study of the cross-sectional method using secondary data where all data were taken from medical check up patient at laboratorium in Jakarta. The total number of all examination populations was 80 people with a mean age is 29 years. The results of the rapid antigen examination were positive were 75 people and negative were 5 people. The results of the RT PCR examination were positive were 77 people and the negative were 3 people. Rapid antigen has a sensitivity to PCR examination in the identification of Covid 19 is 93.51%. Rapid antigen can predict the results of PCR examination as much as 93.51%. 0% rapid antigen specificity means that rapid antigen cannot confirm the type of virus (Covid 19) The accuracy of rapid antigen examination is 90% against PCR. Results: The comparison of the effectiveness of the rapid antigen test and RT PCR was carried out using the Mcnemar statistical test with the results of sig = 0.727, > 0.05. It can be concluded that statistically there is no difference in the effectiveness of rapid antigen with PCR. Limitations: The limitations of this study are that it does not analyze preanalitic factors that can affect the patient results. Contribution: See the effectiveness of the rapid antigen test as an initial screening examination for covid 19 and become the basis for providing therapy in areas with a lack of RT PCR facilities keywords: Coronavirus Disease 2019, Rapid antigen testing, Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr)
