Parvovirus (CPV) — The Priority Test¶
CPV is the highest-volume canine infectious-disease test. Rapid antigen detection in a symptomatic puppy enables same-visit isolation and treatment.
| Finding | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| Antigen positive + clinical signs | High confidence infection |
| Antigen negative | Retest if clinical suspicion high |

FAQ¶
When should I test for CPV? Any puppy with acute vomiting/diarrhea, lethargy, or anorexia — especially unvaccinated.
Does vaccination interfere with CPV antigen tests? Recent vaccination with modified-live vaccine can yield transient positive — correlate with clinical signs.
What sample is used? Fecal swab (preferred) for CPV; serum/plasma for antibody tests.
