Increasing the ability to share and view rapid diagnostic testing data

This report provides a template of data fields specifically relevant to the COVID-19 RDT (rapid diagnostic test) workflow, called the “ACT-A COVID-19 ANTIGEN RDT DATA MODEL”. The intention was to accelerate the development and deployment of a set of minimum functionalities with a minimum dataset (designed specifically for the project), incorporating data exchange and format standards, for the collection of COVID-19 data. This model is aimed at supporting LMIC partners in the collection of COVID-19 antigen RDT results at a decentralized level for use in patient care, disease surveillance, supply chain management, and as relevant, other use-cases related to pandemic responses.
