What is ROTAVIRUS IN STOOL?

This test detects the presence of Rotavirus in a stool sample. Rotavirus is a common cause of severe diarrhea and vomiting, especially in infants and young children.

Why is this test important?

Identifying Rotavirus helps confirm the cause of gastroenteritis, allowing for appropriate management and preventing its spread. While often self-limiting, severe cases can lead to dehydration, requiring medical attention.

How to Prepare

Collect a fresh stool sample as instructed by your healthcare provider.
