Resumo: Introduction: The spread of SARS-CoV-2 has caused a global public health crisis (pandemic). One of the most important measures to control the transmission chain of the new coronavirus is to identify those infected through laboratory testing. Objective: Synthesize the recommendations for the specimen collection for detection and diagnosis of COVID-19. Methods: This is an integrative review, considering the publications of the following databases: PubMed and Google Academic from January 2020. Results: 468 publications were identified, 20 of which were considered eligible. The publications recommend that technical training for specimen collection and careful observation of infection prevention protocols are fundamental. This manuscript highlights the steps for specimen collection as materials for collection, storage, transportation, individual protection, and laboratory analysis of samples. Currently, the Reverse Transcription - Polymerase Chain Reaction test is the recommended and gold standard method of identifying COVID-19 cases. Serological tests play an important role in research and surveillance. Conclusion: In summary, the documents ensure that the RT-PCR is the gold standard for SARS-CoV-2 detection and recommend standardization of collection and conditioning methods to avoid errors related to the collection and false negative results.

Uma das mais importantes medidas de controle da cadeia de transmissão do novo coronavírus consiste em identificar os infectados por meio de teste laboratorial. Objetivo: Sintetizar as recomendações para a coleta de amostras para detecção e diagnóstico da COVID-19. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, considerando as publicações do Google Acadêmico e Pubmed a partir de janeiro de 2020. Resultados: Foram identificadas 468 publicações, das quais 20 foram consideradas elegíveis. As publicações recomendam que a capacitação técnica para a coleta das amostras e a observação criteriosa de protocolos de prevenção de infecção são fundamentais. Destacam-se nesse artigo as etapas para a coleta de amostras como materiais para coleta, armazenamento, transporte, proteção individual e análise laboratorial das amostras. Atualmente, o teste de Reverse Transcription - Polymerase Chain Reaction é o método recomendado e padrão-ouro para a identificação dos casos de COVID-19. Os testes sorológicos desempenham um papel importante na pesquisa e vigilância. Conclusão: Em síntese, os documentos asseguram que o RT-PCR é o teste padrão-ouro para detecção do SARS-CoV-2 e recomenda a padronização dos métodos de coleta e acondicionamento, a fim de evitar erros relacionados com a coleta e resultados falso-negativos.Núcleo de Estudos, Pesquisa e Assessoria à Saúde (NEPAS)2021-07-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://www.portalnepas.org.br/abcshs/article/view/164210.7322/abcshs.2020195.1642ABCS Health Sciences; Vol. 46 (2021); e021302ABCS Health Sciences; v. 46 (2021); e0213022357-81142318-4965reponame:ABCS Health Sciences (Online)instname:Faculdade de Medicina do ABC (FMABC)instacron:FMABCenghttps://www.portalnepas.org.br/abcshs/article/view/1642/1140Copyright (c) 2021 Dall’Agnol et al. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDall'Agnol, JulianaSchwartz, EdaLise, Fernanda2021-12-24T22:52:13Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/1642Revistahttp://www.portalnepas.org.br/abcshsPUBhttp://www.portalnepas.org.br/abcshs/oairicardo.souto@fmabc.br2357-81142318-4965opendoar:2021-12-24T22:52:13ABCS Health Sciences (Online) - Faculdade de Medicina do ABC (FMABC)false
