What Does This High Vaginal Swab Test Report Signify?
can you kindly tell me that report of the test High Vaginal Swab is normal or not ? Gram Stain 1- Neutrophils: Not Seen 2- Yeast cells (Candida): Not Seen 3- Clue Cells: Not Seen 4- Nugent score: 01 Ref. range: 0-3 Normal 4-6 Intermediate =/ 7 Bacterial Vaginosis Note: Nugent score has been calculated from relative numbers of three different bacterial morphotypes, namely - Lactobacillus, Gardenerlla/Bacteroides and Mobiluncus. A score of = / 7 indicates Bacterial Vaginosis (BV).(Nugent RP et al. J. Clinic. Microbiol, 1991; 29:297). Culture Culture yielded No growth of microbial pathogens after 48 hours incubation at 37 οC. Only normal Genital flora is isolated.
The vaginal swab shows no significant infection and nothing to worry about. There are no signs of infection, so there is no yeast infection and no bacterial vaginosis either.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
