What is CAPD Fluid for Cytology?

Cytology of CAPD (Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis) fluid involves examining the fluid under a microscope to identify abnormal cells, which can help diagnose conditions such as peritoneal infections, malignancy, or inflammation. A sample of the effluent (dialysate) is collected and processed, typically through cytospin preparation or direct smear, followed by staining techniques like Papanicolaou or Hematoxylin and Eosin stain.

In the context of peritoneal dialysis, cytological examination can help detect peritoneal carcinoma, peritonitis, or tuberculous peritonitis by identifying malignant cells, inflammatory cells (like neutrophils), or specific granulomas. Abnormal findings guide further diagnostic steps and management.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
