Synovial Fluid for Gram Stain

A synovial fluid for Gram stain test is used to rapidly detect bacterial infections in the joint, such as septic arthritis. The test involves collecting synovial fluid through aspiration from the affected joint, which is then stained using the Gram stain technique. This allows the identification of Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria under a microscope based on their cell wall structure. It provides quick preliminary results, helping to guide early antibiotic treatment. However, for definitive identification of bacteria, a culture and sensitivity (C/S) test is typically required.
