Recurrent positive SARS-CoV-2 RNA tests in recovered and discharged patients() 2020-10-17 .txt text/plain 819 66 55 The ongoing severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic remains a global concern that requires a comprehensive approach to reduce rapid transmission, starting from case detection, inpatient care, as well as post-hospital management. However, concerns have risen over recent reports of increasing re-detectable positive (RP) SARS-CoV-2 RNA tests observed among recovered and discharged patients 1-2 . Aiming to summarize the current evidence, a meta-analysis was performed to estimate the prevalence of RP SARS-CoV-2 RNA tests among recovered patients, in addition to the days of RNA-positive conversion since last negative/discharge. A comprehensive literature search was conducted through an electronic database dated up to May 2020, with search terms such as "recovered/discharged patients", "coronavirus 2019/COVID-19", "SARS-CoV-2", "positive PCR" used in combination without language restriction. 1. Observational studies or case reports that described some RP SARS-CoV-2 RNA tests among recovered/discharged patients.
