Aspirated Fluid for Gram Stain

The Aspirated Fluid for Gram Stain test is used to identify bacterial infections in fluid samples obtained from areas like abscesses, joints, or body cavities. The fluid is aspirated using a needle or catheter, and then subjected to Gram staining, which allows the laboratory to classify bacteria as either Gram-positive or Gram-negative based on their cell wall structure. This preliminary test provides rapid information, helping to guide initial treatment before further cultures or sensitivity tests are completed. Risks include mild discomfort or infection at the aspiration site, but they are generally minimal.
