    What is Culture & Sensitivity - Aerobic (Blood) Test?

    A Blood Culture test is a crucial diagnostic test that evaluates a blood sample for microorganisms, such as bacteria or fungi. In healthy individuals, blood should be free from pathogenic organisms. The presence of these microorganisms typically signifies an infection, known as bacteraemia, blood poisoning, or septicaemia. These infections often occur when pathogens from other body regions, like the lungs, intestines, urinary tract, or skin, infiltrate the bloodstream.

    Additionally, individuals with weakened immune systems are at increased risk of blood infections. This vulnerability is especially evident in infants, the elderly, or those with specific diseases like cancer or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Certain medications that compromise the immune response can also elevate the risk of infection.

    Because infections can quickly become serious, receiving a Blood Culture and Sensitivity test is essential for early diagnosis. This test plays a critical role in identifying harmful microorganisms in the blood, enabling timely and appropriate treatment to halt the infection from spreading to other organs and causing further complications.

    Culture & Sensitivity - Aerobic (Blood) Test Parameters

    The Blood Culture and Sensitivity test focuses on a single parameter: the identification of microorganisms within the blood.

    A blood sample is cultivated in a medium that supports the growth of microorganisms. The specific types of microorganisms can then be identified through microscopy or chemical methods. Furthermore, sensitivity testing may be conducted to determine the most effective antibiotic for treatment. Usually, two or three samples are collected from different veins to ensure that all potential bacteria or fungi are detected.

    Culture & Sensitivity - Aerobic (Blood) Test Preparation

    Before taking the Blood Culture and Sensitivity test, consider the following key points:

    ● Prerequisites There are no specific requirements, such as fasting, before you take the Blood Culture test.

    • Confusion
