Electronic and animal noses for detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (diagnostic). The objectives are as follows: To assess the diagnostic test accuracy of eNoses to screen for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection in public places, such as airports. To assess the diagnostic test accuracy of sniffer animals, and more specifically dogs, to screen for SARS‐CoV‐2 infection in public places, such as airports. To assess the diagnostic test accuracy of eNoses for SARS‐CoV‐2 infection or COVID‐19 in symptomatic people presenting in the community, or in secondary care.
