Description
Fluid Analysis, Normal Findings of Various Body FluidsAn LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) body fluid test measures the enzyme levels in various bodily fluids, such as those from the chest (pleural), abdomen (peritoneal), or spinal fluid, to indicate cell and tissue damage. High LDH levels in these fluids suggest inflammation, infection, or injury to organs like the heart, liver, or lungs and are used to differentiate between fluid types or monitor conditions like cancer. What is LDH? LDH is an enzyme found in nearly all body tissues, especially high in the heart, liver, muscles, kidneys, and red blood cells. It plays a vital role in converting glucose into energy for cells. When is the test done? Doctors order this test when there's suspicion of tissue damage in areas where fluid can accumulate, such as the chest, abdomen, or around the spinal cord. It helps diagnose conditions like infections, inflammation, heart conditions, liver disease, and certain cancers. It can be used to distinguish between transudative effusions (fluid buildup due to fluid imbalance) and exudative effusions (fluid buildup from infection or inflammation), which have higher LDH levels. What do the results mean? Elevated levels: typically indicate damaged or injured tissues, which could point to a heart attack, liver disease, muscle injury, or cancer. Low levels: might suggest malnutrition or a low red blood cell count. Because LDH is released from many different tissues, an elevated result is not specific and is usually interpreted with other lab tests and clinical information to reach a proper diagnosis. What to expect during the test A healthcare professional will collect a fluid sample from the affected body cavity, which may involve procedures like a thoracentesis (for chest fluid), paracentesis (for abdominal fluid), or lumbar puncture (for spinal fluid). The sample is then sent to a lab for analysis.
