Course: A Rapid Olfactory Test as a Potential Screening Tool for COVID-19

CME Credits: 1.00

Released: 2021-07-15

Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is one of the earliest and strongest predictors of COVID-19 infection, and thus is promising as a disease screening tool.1,2 Compared with objective testing, subjective olfactory assessments significantly underreport OD.3,4 Thus, an inexpensive, quick, and sensitive method of assessing olfaction may be beneficial for the early diagnosis and spread prevention of COVID-19. In this study, we evaluate the feasibility of a novel, objective olfactory test as part of an initial screening for COVID-19 in adults with unknown disease status.
