Ascitic Fluid for Gram Stain
The Ascitic Fluid for Gram Stain test involves examining ascitic fluid under a microscope after it is stained with Gram’s stain. This test helps identify bacterial infections, particularly spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), by detecting the presence of bacteria in the fluid. The fluid is obtained through paracentesis, where a needle is inserted into the abdomen to collect the fluid. The risks of the procedure are minimal, such as slight discomfort or infection at the puncture site. A positive Gram stain can help identify the type of bacteria causing the infection, aiding in treatment decisions.225 BDT300 BDT
