This test is used to look for certain types of bacteria in the blood. The bacteria being tested for are called anaerobic because they don't require oxygen for them to grow.
An anaerobic blood culture means the test is done without letting oxygen get into the sample. Infections caused by the anaerobic bacteria can occur anywhere in the body. Finding the specific organism causing the infection may help the doctor to choose the right treatment.
Doctors may suggest the test if there are few symptoms like nausea, tachycardia, increased breathing, decrease in frequency/quantity of urine, fever with/and chills, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, etc. The infections caused by anaerobic bacteria may sometimes lead to severe conditions like organ failure.

How is the blood sample taken?
To take the blood sample, a tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is then asked to make a fist.

Needle is inserted into the vein of the arm and the blood sample is collected in the vacutainer.
