<trans-abstract xml:lang="fr" id="Abs2"><title>Résumé</title>
<p>Tandis que le monde se prépare à la prochaine pandémie de grippe, les gouvernements se sont engagés à financer substantiellement la mise au point de vaccins et la constitution de réserves d’antiviraux. Même s’il s’agit là de volets essentiels à une intervention en cas de pandémie, le diagnostic rapide et exact demeure une pierre angulaire, souvent négligée, de la préparation à la pandémie de grippe. Les cliniciens et les praticiens en santé publique doivent comprendre les avantages et les inconvénients des différents tests de dépistage tant en saison de grippe qu’en situation de pandémie. La mise en culture est depuis longtemps le test de référence servant au diagnostic de la grippe, mais il faut de 1 à 10 jours pour obtenir un résultat positif, comparativement aux méthodes de détection des acides nucléiques telles que l’amplification par la polymérase après transcription inverse (RT-PCR) en temps réel. Bien que les trousses courantes de détection des antigènes puissent donner un résultat en moins de 30 minutes, leur sensibilité est sous-optimale, et elles ne sont pas conseillées pour déceler les nouveaux virus de la grippe. Tant que les tests au point de service ne se seront pas améliorés au Canada, le RPLPI recommande un renforcement dans tout le pays, de la capacité de dépistage du virus à l’aide d’un test d’amplification des acides nucléiques comme étant le meilleur moyen de se préparer à une pandémie de grippe.</p>
