Influenza Test with Rapid Results | ACCU Reference Medical Lab

2015-11-09 06:00:00


Having the flu (influenza) is one of the most unpleasant experiences that people have to go through in life. For most people it is not life threatening (even though it might feel like it is) but for those who are immunocompromised in some way, it certainly can be. Whether it is due to age, illness or anything else, the flu has killed millions of people over the years and it continues to be one of the leading causes of death in many groups. One way to help improve your ability to fight off the flu is to know what the cause of your particular case actually is. This can be done by getting a flu test, which can identify the actual virus (or viruses) that is causing your illness. An influenza test is a fast and painless way to get the information you need to allow your doctors to provide you with a more targeted and effective treatment. Once the doctor knows the virus, they will have a lot more options regarding what medications to prescribe.

Types of Influenza Virus

Saying that someone has the flu has become a generic diagnosis over the years, but in reality most people don’t know whether they actually have the influenza virus or it is something else entirely. There are many viruses that can cause you to become sick with symptoms that people associate with influenza. If doctors are treating you for the influenza virus, but it is actually something else (or vice versa) it can delay your recovery. Our influenza test is part of a larger targeted virial panel that can pinpoint which virus you are fighting. The following viruses can be identified through our influenza test so you will know exactly what is causing your issues.

  • Adenovirus B/E
  • Adenovirus C
  • Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV)
  • Human Rhinovirus (HRV)
  • Influenza A
  • Influenza A 2009 H1N1 *AKA Swine Flu
  • Influenza A H1
  • Influenza A H3
  • Influenza B
  • Parainfluenza Virus (PIV) 1
  • Parainfluenza Virus (PIV) 2
  • Parainfluenza Virus (PIV) 3
  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) A
  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) B
