What is the TB assessment?

A sample of blood is sent to a lab. One lab test finds out whether certain immune system cells can recognize tuberculosis. A positive test shows that you have either a latent TB infection or active TB disease. Other tests of the blood sample can help determine if you have active disease.

How do you assess a patient with TB?

The test takes two separate visits to complete. The first visit is to administer the test, which typically takes about 5 minutes. The second visit is to interpret the test results. Test results must be read within a 48 to 72 hour window to be considered valid.

How long does a TB assessment take?

Recommended tests. There are two tests that are used to determine if a person has been infected with TB bacteria: TB blood tests ( Gamma Release Assay [IGRA]) and the TB skin test (Mantoux tuberculin skin test).

What is a TB assessment?

Sputum tests Your healthcare professional may take a sample of the mucus that comes up when you cough, also called sputum. If you have active TB disease in your lungs or voice box, lab tests can detect the bacteria. A relatively quick laboratory test can tell if the sputum likely has the TB bacteria.
