What is a Tb Mdr Screen (lpa) Test in Visit Clinic?
Tb MDR Screen (LPA) is a molecular test that finds DNA from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It also checks for specific gene changes that cause resistance to key TB drugs, mainly rifampicin and isoniazid. This matters because it shows whether standard treatments will work. The test helps detect active lung TB and identifies multidrug-resistant TB early. Doctors use it to confirm diagnosis and to choose the right drug combination. It gives results faster than traditional culture tests. Clinicians order it when patients have TB symptoms, are not improving on treatment, or have been exposed to a resistant case. Early results help guide effective therapy and reduce spread.
