Pericardial Fluid for Anti TB IgG

This test detects antibodies to tuberculosis (TB) in the pericardial fluid, used when TB infection of the heart’s lining is suspected. Preparation involves ensuring proper patient positioning for fluid collection. A needle is inserted into the chest to withdraw pericardial fluid (pericardiocentesis). Risks include infection, bleeding, or injury to the heart. After the test, rest is recommended, and pain or swelling might occur. Results are positive if anti-TB IgG antibodies are present, indicating a TB infection. Conditions like recent TB treatment or other infections can influence test accuracy or results.
