Bronchial Washing for Gram Stain

Bronchial Washing for Gram Stain is a diagnostic procedure used to identify bacterial infections in the lungs. During a bronchoscopy, a sterile saline solution is introduced into the bronchial tubes and then suctioned out to collect a sample of mucus and cells. This sample is then subjected to a Gram stain, which categorizes bacteria into Gram-positive or Gram-negative types based on their cell wall structure. The results help identify the presence of bacterial pathogens and guide appropriate antibiotic treatment. Risks include infection, bleeding, and discomfort. It is commonly used to diagnose conditions like pneumonia or bronchitis.
