INTRODUCTION
Diagnostic tests are important tools to meet the continuing and evolving public health needs. Initially, a risk-based approach along with clinical symptoms was used as a criteria for Covid testing by RT-PCR test. Subsequently, the testing criteria were revised and Truenat test was recommended as a screening tool to test low risk population followed by a confirmatory RT-PCR test.
Healthcare facility may conduct screening of asymptomatic individuals as part of a strategy to ensure the safety of healthcare workers and other patients. We began triaging low risk obstetric population by utilising Truenat test to screen them. The purpose of this review is to suggest quick key points of strategies to implement in obstetric units.
