Summary

comparison between the result of fluid culture and that of pleural tissue culture

Detailed description

MICROBIOLOGICAL VALUE OF SONOGRAPHIC GUIDED PLEURAL TISSUE CULTURE PLUS PLEURAL FLUID CULTURE IN PATIENTS WITH INFECTED PLEURAL FLUID

Conditions

Interventions

TypeNameDescription
PROCEDUREpleural biopsyTo assess whether pleural tissue culture can improve the identification of causative organisms in pleural infections (using the pleural fluid culture), which can aid in selecting appropriate antimicrobial therapy and improve treatment outcomes, thus may provide valuable insights into the utility of pleural tissue culture in managing pleural infection and may guide clinicians in selecting the most appropriate diagnostic approach.
