description Coronavirus disease 2019, (Coronavirus Disease 2019, COVID-19), is caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus or Severe 2 (SARS-CoV-2). For its diagnosis there are three types of tests: those based on the detection of the virus (RNA or viral antigen), on the detection of antigens and those that detect antibodies. The Real- time Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (rRT-PCR) detects the genetic material (RNA) of the virus, it is the reference standard for diagnostic of COVID-19; tests that detect antigens (virus proteins) may be useful as a criterion to confirm that the virus is present at the time the sample is taken and test that detect antibodies (IgM/IgG) indicate that there has been previous contact with the virus. Laboratory tests are used as help diagnostic and show findings that may lead to suspicion of COVID-19.

La enfermedad por Coronavirus 2019, (Coronavirus Disease 2019, COVID-19), es causada por el Coronavirus del Síndrome Respiratorio Agudo Severo o Grave 2 (severe respiratory acute syndrome 2, SARS-CoV-2). Para su diagnóstico existen tres tipos de pruebas: las basadas en la detección del virus (RNA o antígeno viral), en la detección de antígenos y las que detectan anticuerpos.  La reacción en cadena de la polimerasa de transcripción inversa en tiempo real (rRT-PCR) detecta el material genético (ARN) del virus, es el estándar de referencia para diagnóstico de COVID-19; las pruebas que detectan antígenos (proteínas del virus) pueden ser útiles como criterio para confirmar que el virus está presente en el momento en que se toma la muestra y las que detectan anticuerpos (IgM/IgG) indican que se ha tenido un contacto previo con el virus. Los exámenes de laboratorio se utilizan como ayuda diagnostica y muestran hallazgos que pueden hacer sospechar de COVID-19.   A doença do coronavírus 2019 (COVID-19) é causada pela síndrome respiratória aguda grave 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Três tipos de testes estão disponíveis para o diagnóstico: testes baseados na detecção do vírus (RNA ou antígeno viral), detecção do antígeno e detecção de anticorpos. A reação em cadeia da polimerase com transcrição reversa em tempo real (rRT-PCR) detecta o material genético (RNA) do vírus e é o padrão de referência para o diagnóstico da COVID-19; os testes de detecção de antígeno (proteína do vírus) podem ser úteis como critério para confirmar que o vírus está presente no momento em que a amostra é coletada; e os testes de detecção de anticorpos (IgM/IgG) indicam contato prévio com o vírus. Os exames laboratoriais são usados como auxílio diagnóstico e mostram achados que podem levantar a suspeita de COVID-19.
