Clinical Information (ข้อมูลทางคลินิก):
Nocardia asteroides, the most commonly recognized aerobic actinomycete, causes significant disease in immunocompromised patients. Clinical presentations can include pneumonia, skin abscess, bacteremia, brain abscess, eye infection, and joint infection. Other species associated with human disease include Nocardia brasiliensis, Nocardia otitidiscaviarum, Nocardia farcinica, Nocardia nova, and Nocardia transvalensis. Cryptosporidium and Isospora species have been identified as causes of severe diarrhea in immunocompromised hosts, but they can also cause diarrhea in the immunocompetent host. Oocysts in clinical specimens may be difficult to identify with out special staining.
 
Reference Value (ค่าอ้างอิง):
No Modified AFB, Cryptosporidium and Isospora seen
 
Interpretation (การแปลผล):
Positive slides are reported as one or more of the following: - Filamentous and Branching of Nocardia like Microorganism - Cocci of Rhodococcus like Microorganism - Cryptosporidium - Isospora
