To observe the treatment for lower respiratory tract infection. While symptoms can vary, based on a specific condition, common respiratory infection symptoms include a mucus-producing cough, fever, shortness of breath, fatigue, and chest pain when breathing or coughing.


    What does it measure?


    The Sputum Culture test measures: Whether bacteria or other germs grow after a sputum sample is placed in a special dish, called a petri dish in a laboratory. The petri dish contains material known as a culture medium that enables bacteria or fungi present in the sample to grow. The petri dish is checked after a day or more to evaluate the amount and type of bacteria present. The Sputum Culture test detects the presence of disease-causing pathogens in those patients who are suspected of having bacterial infections, pneumonia, or other lower respiratory tract infections. The pathogens are identified by the Sputum Culture test, and accordingly, after susceptibility testing, the treatment is initiated. However, at times, a respiratory infection can be caused by a pathogen that cannot be grown and identified with a culture sputum test.

I had a very good experience again.

    • Giving 5 stars just for that customer care representative. I was super angry on the delay and he took complete responsibility. He waited and coordinated with me for 1-1.5 hours to get the things done. His name is Vijay. Giving 5 stars, just because of him. Orange Labs. this 5 stars is just for the way he handled the things and took responsibility. Delayed reports. No one took responsibility except one person. Thanks to him.

    • The best experience I have had in the last two weeks with multiple tests booked for different family members. From the moment I contacted them till the receipt of the results and re-bookings for follow up tests, everything was fantastic. Pls note the sample taking covered early morning visit, for a patient aged 90+!! Initially I had made the big mistake of contacting another big-noise, big-ad spending Lab service provider based on a Google search of a particular test resulting in its top of page listing, and was utterly disgusted with that Labs' service. I would fully recommend Orange for anyone - possibly any test, any age patient. Thank you Orange Labs.
