Bronchial Brushing for Gram Stain

Bronchial brushing for Gram stain is a diagnostic procedure used to collect cells and mucus from the airways to identify bacterial infections in the lungs. During a bronchoscopy, a small brush is inserted into the bronchial tubes to gently collect a sample from the inner lining. This sample is then analyzed using a Gram stain to detect the presence and type of bacteria, guiding antibiotic treatment. Preparation may include fasting and stopping certain medications. Risks include infection, bleeding, or discomfort. Results help identify bacterial pathogens, ensuring appropriate treatment for conditions like pneumonia or bronchitis.
