ADA Pericardial Fluid Test Pune - Enzyme Marker for Cardiac Tubercular Infection
Direct answer: The ADA pericardial fluid test measures adenosine deaminase enzyme activity in fluid collected around the heart to help detect tuberculosis-related pericardial infection and chronic cardiac inflammation.
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an immune-response enzyme released during active infection. When excess fluid accumulates in the sac surrounding the heart (pericardial effusion), raised ADA levels in pericardial fluid commonly indicate tubercular involvement. This test supports diagnosis when unexplained cardiac fluid collection or persistent fever is investigated. Sample testing is available through our Home Collection Facility across Pune or at our Direct Walk-in Facility in Aundh and nearby areas.
Why is the ADA pericardial fluid test advised?
Direct answer: This test helps detect tuberculosis-related pericardial infection when fluid around the heart is present.
High ADA activity in pericardial fluid supports the diagnosis of tubercular pericarditis, especially when correlated with imaging and microbiology findings. Doctors may interpret results alongside culture or PCR tests. Learn more about infection-related diagnostics in our health articles, view sample guidance in test preparation guides, or compare diagnostic packages on comparison resources.
