Clinical diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection: An observational study of respiratory tract infection in primary care in the early phase of the pandemic (van der Velden et al., 2023)
The study aimed to investigate from the initial stage of the pandemic: (1) the aetiology of circulating RTI; (2) how accurately GPs were able to predict a subsequent microbiological diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection; (3) patient management for follow-up, medication prescribing, advice and referral; and 4) which particular signs, symptoms and patient characteristics were associated with proven SARS-CoV-2 infection.
