About This Test
The Vomitus for Occult Blood Test is a laboratory test performed to detect the presence of hidden (occult) blood in vomitus (vomit).
This test helps determine whether bleeding is occurring in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The term “occult” means blood not visible to the naked eye but detectable through chemical testing. This test is important because gastrointestinal bleeding can be life-threatening, and early detection helps clinicians take immediate action.
