Vitreous Aspirate for C/S Price in Bangladesh

What is Vitreous Aspirate for C/S?

The Vitreous Aspirate for C/S (Culture and Sensitivity) test is used to identify bacterial or fungal infections in the vitreous humor of the eye, typically in cases of endophthalmitis or other intraocular infections. A sample of vitreous fluid is collected using a sterile needle, usually under local anesthesia.

The fluid is then cultured to identify any microorganisms and determine which antibiotics or antifungals will be most effective. Risks include mild discomfort, infection, or injury to the eye.

A positive result indicates an infection, while a negative result suggests no microbial growth. Normal activities can resume after recovery.

What to expect & how to prepare

A culture test looks for bacteria or other organisms in a sample and checks which antibiotics act against them. The sample is incubated in the laboratory, so this test needs more time than a routine blood report.

• Antibiotics: tell the laboratory if you have already started an antibiotic — it can change the result. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.
• Sample collection: the correct sample and the way it is collected depend on the site being tested; the laboratory will instruct you or collect it for you.
• Timing: culture results take longer than routine tests because the organisms must grow first. Ask the laboratory when your report is expected.

Interpreted together with your symptoms — antibiotic choice should be made by a registered doctor, not from the report alone.
