Rectal Swab for Gram Stain

A rectal swab for Gram stain is used to detect bacterial infections in the rectum. It involves collecting a sample of rectal discharge or mucus with a sterile swab. The sample is stained and examined under a microscope to identify bacteria based on their cell wall structure. Preparation: No special preparation is typically needed. Procedure: A healthcare provider gently inserts the swab into the rectum, collects the sample, and sends it for analysis. Risks: Minimal, but slight discomfort or irritation may occur. Results: The presence of bacteria is noted as either Gram-positive or Gram-negative, aiding in diagnosis. Conditions like infection or gastrointestinal disorders may influence results.
