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

Vitreous Aspirate 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 Vitreous Aspirate for C/S result rather than self-diagnosing.
