Respiratory Diagnostics After COVID: How Devansh Lab Werks is Equipping Providers with Smarter qPCR Testing

Introduction
The COVID-19 pandemic reshaped how the world views respiratory infections. While SARS-CoV-2 has become more manageable, providers still face a common issue: overlapping symptoms between COVID-19, influenza, RSV, and other pathogens. Accurate diagnostics are essential—and fast.

Devansh Lab Werks (DLW), a CLIA-certified lab in the U.S., is delivering precise, high-throughput qPCR-based respiratory pathogen panels to help healthcare professionals respond swiftly and confidently.

1. The Post-Pandemic Diagnostic Challenge
Patients now present with symptoms that could signal a range of infections:

• Fever

• Cough

• Shortness of breath

• Fatigue

Is it COVID? Flu? RSV? Or something bacterial? Guesswork can delay proper treatment and increase transmission risk. DLW’s multi-pathogen respiratory panel helps differentiate these quickly, guiding more appropriate care.

2. What Makes DLW’s qPCR Panels Stand Out?
DLW's respiratory panel uses real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to detect multiple viral and bacterial pathogens from a single sample. These include:

• SARS-CoV-2

• Influenza A & B

• RSV

• Rhinovirus/Enterovirus

• Adenovirus

• Mycoplasma pneumoniae

• Bordetella pertussis

Advantages:

• High sensitivity and specificity

• Rapid turnaround (within 24–48 hours)

• One swab = 20+ pathogens

• Ideal for clinics, schools, long-term care, urgent care

3. The Workflow: Simple, Scalable, Smart

Step 1: Physician orders test via DLW portal or intake form
Step 2: Sample collected via mobile phlebotomy or in-facility draw
Step 3: Sample processed at DLW’s certified lab
Step 4: Results delivered securely via HIPAA-compliant portal

DLW supports both high-volume clients and one-off requests, making it scalable for every organization.

4. Real-Life Clinical Use Cases

• Pediatrics: Differentiating RSV from flu in children for faster treatment plans

• Geriatric Clinics: Monitoring immunocompromised or elderly patients for multiple pathogens

• Employers/Workplace Clinics: Reducing absenteeism and transmission risk

• Telehealth Support: Matching symptoms with rapid at-home phlebotomy + qPCR diagnostics

"We use DLW’s respiratory panel weekly during flu season—it’s a game-changer for triage."

5. Better Outcomes, Lower Costs

• Reduce ER admissions from misdiagnosis

• Avoid unnecessary antibiotics

• Improve turnaround time for viral treatment initiation (e.g., Tamiflu)

• Minimize community spread through faster isolation

6. How to Get Started DLW makes onboarding easy:

• Create a provider account and choose preferred test volume

• Access supply kits and training if needed

• Begin scheduling draws or sending samples for qPCR testing

Conclusion: Testing Smarter in the New Normal
Respiratory infections aren’t going away—but the guessing can. With DLW’s high-precision qPCR pathogen panels, healthcare providers can treat quickly, isolate responsibly, and protect their communities better than ever.
