Sputum for C/S Price in Bangladesh

What is Sputum for C/S?

Sputum for C/S (Culture and Sensitivity) is a test used to identify bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and determine the most effective antibiotics for treatment. The process involves collecting a sputum sample, which is then cultured in a laboratory to grow any bacteria present.

The test helps diagnose respiratory infections such as pneumonia, bronchitis, or tuberculosis. Once bacteria are identified, sensitivity testing is performed to determine which antibiotics will effectively treat the infection.

The test typically takes a few days for results, and a positive result helps guide appropriate antibiotic therapy for the infection.

What to expect & how to prepare

Sputum for C/S is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Sputum for C/S result rather than self-diagnosing.
