Overview
Laboratory findings
Specific tests
Specific diagnostic tests include lumbar puncture with CSF examination and CSF culture. CSF examination findings in bacterial meningitis are as follows:
| Cerebrospinal fluid level | Normal level | Viral meningitis[1] |
|---|---|---|
| Cells/ul | < 5 | >300 |
| Cells | Lymphos:Monos 7:3 | Gran. > Lymph |
| Total protein (mg/dl) | 45-60 | Typically 100-500 |
| Glucose ratio (CSF/plasma)[2] | > 0.5 | < 0.3 |
| Lactate (mmols/l)[3] | < 2.1 | > 2.1 |
| Others | ICP:6-12 (cm H2O) | CSF gram stain, CSF culture, CSF bacterial antigen |
