Document: Methods. Nursing home residents with acute onset respiratory symptoms were identified from 3 Southern California NHs from June-August 2015. Bilateral nares swabs were obtained and 5 high touch room surfaces were sampled: (1) table/bedrails, (2) call button/remote/phones, (3) light switches, (4) bathroom rail/handles, and (5) door/handles. All samples were processed utilizing the FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP) (Biofire Diagnostics), an FDA-approved automated multiplex nested PCR system. The FilmArray instrument system tests for a standard panel of viruses (influenza A, A/H1, H3, and H1-2009), influenza B, RSV, parainfluenza virus 1-4, adenovirus, coronavirus (299E, HKU1, OC43, NL63), human metapneumovirus, and human rhinovirus/enterovirus).
