About This Test
This test is performed on drain fluid collected from any two surgical or body cavity drain (e.g., abdominal drain, pelvic drain, chest drain, JP drain, ICD tube).
It checks for bacterial or fungal infection in the drained fluid.
The test uses two advanced automated systems:
1. BACTEC System – for rapid detection of microorganisms
2. VITEK 2 System – for identification & antibiotic sensitivity
This test helps clinicians identify the exact organism causing drain-related infectio and choose the most effective antibiotic based on sensitivity.
