Abstract:
:The use of the nitroblue tetrozolium (NRT) dye reduction test as a screening method for bacterial and fungal infections is now widely recognized. Levels have been reported to be falsely elevated in the pregnant state. This report includes a prospective study which showed that the results of this test in 124 pregnant women were indistinguishable from those of a normal control population. Seven of 8 elevated levels were attributable to infection or allergy. With this data, it is concluded that the NBT test can be used to screen for bacterial and fungal illnesses in a febrile pregnant patient as well as in the general population.
