LumiraDX

At LumiraDx, we make diagnostic-led care simpler and more accessible with smarter connected diagnostics and diagnostic-led care solutions, to enable better outcomes: better health, better experiences and better value.

The company launched the LumiraDx Platform in 2018 - an innovative, next generation point of care diagnostic system that combines a small, portable Instrument, advanced low-cost Test Strip and seamless digital connectivity. Proprietary technology enables it to deliver performance referenced to laboratory standard assays, while being simple and easy to use. LumiraDx Tests are produced on a bespoke, high-throughput manufacturing line to deliver precise microfluidic test strips which use small clinical samples, including capillary blood.

The LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 Ag Test is designed to be used in health care settings to provide an aid to rapid diagnosis of COVID-19. The test uses either a nasal or nasal pharyngeal swab specimen from individuals at risk of, or with symptoms of, COVID-19 within the first 12 days of symptom onset. Clinical studies were performed at 6 sites across the US and UK with 257 subjects and demonstrated a 97.6% positive agreement and 96.6% negative agreement with RT-PCR
