Objectives: The RT-PCR method is often regarded as the "gold standard" method for the detection of SARS-COV-2. A limitation of PCR however, is the 'time to result'. With a rapid molecular diagnostic test (intervention), results can be obtained much quicker (3-15 minutes). The objective was to to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of one of the rapid molecular diagnostic tests for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection, in comparison to RT-PCR. Methods: We systematically searched EMBASE, Medline and the Cochrane Library through November 31, 2021. All prospective studies on the diagnostic efficacy of the assessed intervention compared with RT-PCR in symptomatic patients were retrieved. Only studies conducted according to the valid protocol recommended by the manufacturer were included: dry swab collected by investigator; samples for intervention and control taken from the same anatomical place; "fresh" samples, tested shortly after collection without freezing. Results: The meta-analysis of the eligible studies (n=7; 3,493 patients) showed sensitivity of the intervention was 0.956 (95% CI: 0.918 -0.976) and specificity was 0.995 (95% CI: 0.946-0.999) compared with
