Arun Dev Singh
Abstract :
This study was done on 2401 patients suspecting to suffer from Tuberculosis. Study included prospective analysis. This study was done for 1 year and 8 months. Sputum examination was done in all cases and sputum staining for AFB is done by Z.N stain.
RESULTS: Total 2401 cases were included in this study. Out of 2401 Cases included, 190 cases were categorized as positive and 2211 were categorised as negative.
CONCLUSION: Z N staining is a rapid, easily available technique for evaluation of AFB. It helps in making diagnosis and management plan. Z N staining is a simple and quick procedure.
