Bacteriology
&
Microbiology Testing


Bacteriology testing includes aerobic and anaerobic culture of swabs, fluid, and tissue.




Bacteriology testing includes aerobic and anaerobic culture of swabs, fluid, and tissue. Identification of the isolated species is carried out as far as possible. Sensitivity testing is performed on pure isolates. Sensitivity is not run on mixed growths unless a significant species or potential pathogens are present. For blood cultures, please contact us for special culture bottles. Bacteriology and Microbiology testing also includes Mycology, the analysis of diseases resulting from infections with molds and yeasts. Mycology services are limited to morphological identifications of routine cultures, and to molecular identifications in the evaluation of urogenital infections

What is the Procedure of an Ultrasound?




SPECIMEN COLLECTION

1. Bacteriology

1.2 Collection of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) for culture and sensitivity (C & S) or Bacterial Antigen Detection
  1. Properly collected specimens should be sent to lab within office hours without delay in order to avoid overgrowth of commensals or loss of viability of pathogens.
  2. Specimens should be collected from correct anatomic sites using proper techniques to avoid contamination from indigenous flora.
  3. Specimens should be collected before antibiotics given, if possible. If antibiotics are given indicate in the request form.
  4. Specimens collected should be of adequate volume and be placed in appropriate container
  5. Each specimen should be accompanied by fully completed request form.

1.2 Collection of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) for culture and sensitivity (C & S) or Bacterial Antigen Detection

  1. Disinfect the skin over the lumber puncture site.
  2. Observing aseptic techniques, perform a lumbar puncture and collect about 0.5-3 ml of CSF directly into sterile container.
  3. Send the specimen immediately to the laboratory. DO NOT STORE IN A REFRIGERATOR as organisms causing meningitis are usually very sensitive to cold.

1.3 Blood C & S

Check blood medium for gross contamination before use. Bottle with gross turbidity should be returned to the lab.

  1. Disinfection of culture bottle: Apply 70% alcohol to rubber stopper and wait 1 minute.
  2. of venipuncture site with 2 steps of disinfections
    1. Cleanse site with 70% alcohol.
    2. Swab concentrically starting at center with iodine and allow iodine to dry.

Understanding the Science Behind Ultrasound Tests:

The term ‘Ultrasound’ literally means sounds belonging to a ‘frequency’ that humans are not able to ‘detect’ or hear. For most diagnostic applications, this frequency range lies between 2 and 18 megahertz (MHz). Higher frequencies can generate better Ultrasound image quality but are susceptible to getting absorbed (and therefore, ‘diminished in power’) by the skin and other soft tissues. Lower frequencies can penetrate deeper past the layers of skin & tissues but produce imagesmof a relatively lower resolution and quality. During the process, the Radiologist will hold a wand-like device called the Transducer in his or her hand. The transducer is placed on the patient’s body externally. In some cases, insertion may be done via the rectum (for males) and vagina (for females) and the Transducer in such situations is ‘placed internally’. Be it external or internal, sound waves are emitted by the machine which travels through the skin and tissue till it reaches a surface that is too dense for it to penetrate further. The sound waves are then reflected back (similar to the act of light reflecting off a mirror or, say, an echo of our own voice) – resulting in an image. This image or picture is also sometimes referred to as a Sonogram. Different shades of grey indicate different densities of the reflecting surface inside the body, which can be an organ or an internal structure. Despite being different technically, the terms Ultrasound and sonogram are sometimes used interchangeably.

COLOR DOPPLER Blood flow through blood vessels
Color Doppler carotid (neck) To see for: , Blood flow through neck vessels carotid arteries , Carotid arteries are the main source of blood flow to the Brain
Abdomen Doppler To see for: , Blood supply to liver – cirrhosis, Liver failure, chronic alcoholic , Blood supply to intestines
Renal Doppler To see for: , Blood supply to kidney , Chronic kidney disease , Hypertension in young , Sometimes pregnancy induced hypertension
Lower limb Doppler Arterial To see for: , Blood supply heart to foot , Blockage , Narrowing of arteries , Reduced blood flow
Lower limb Doppler venous To see for: , Blood supply foot to heart , Blockage , Varicose veins
Pelvic Doppler / 3D pelvis Doppler To see for: , Blood supply to uterus / ovaries , Cysts categorisation
Scrotum Doppler To see for: , Infertility , Torsion (twisted testis) , Blood supply to scrotum , Infection / mass
3D TVS/ 4D TVS/ 5D TVS Better Resolution / Clarity Better Diagnosis

At most places TVS / LA is done by 2D Probe due to which uterine anomalies are easily missed but here it is picked.
Why 4D / 5D Scan , Transducer Capacity (1-13 MHz) , Higher the Frequency range better the resolution , 1 – 3 MHz Deep Penetration , Higher the Frequency Superficial will be Penetration , Generally, in market (2 – 8 MHz) Transducer , 3D / 4D / 5D TVS Transducer
