The Sputum GeneXpert test is a molecular diagnostic test that detects tuberculosis (TB) DNA and drug-resistant strains in sputum samples.
Unlike traditional TB tests, the GeneXpert test provides faster results and can detect drug-resistant strains of TB by analyzing genetic material.
No special preparation is required. Provide a sputum sample, ideally collected in the morning, and follow any specific instructions from your healthcare provider.
Results are usually available within 1 to 2 days after the sample is processed, providing a rapid diagnosis.
The test offers accurate and quick detection of TB and drug-resistant strains, which is crucial for effective treatment and control of TB infections.
Risks include infection, bleeding, and the possibility of the fistula not maturing properly. Our surgeons take precautions to minimize these risks.
Some discomfort and pain are normal post-surgery, but these can be managed with medication and usually subside within a few weeks.
