Test kits, also known as at-home medical tests or home use tests, allow an individual to test, screen, or monitor for a certain diseases and disorders. Test kits provide samples which are collected in a non-invasive manner, and they can be obtained without a healthcare professional in the privacy of one's own home. Examples of some at-home test kits include those which test for: pregnancy, blood sugar, fecal occult blood, genetic, and COVID-19.
