Abstract

This is a documentary research aimed to compile diagnostic tests registered at Anvisa for COVID-19. In total, 217 diagnostic tests were found, of these, 135 were immunochromatographic tests and 34 were PCR tests, 15 antibodies and 11 fluorescent immunoassays. Of the immunochromatographic tests, the IgG / IgM sensitivity varied from 72% to 100% and specificity from 32% to 100%. For the registered PCR tests, 97.05% claimed to have a sensitivity equal to or greater than 95%. It is concluded that the understanding about the effectiveness of the diagnostic tests for COVID-19 is still limited due to the heterogeneity of the results.
