Following on from our episode on meningococcal, we bring you a guide to interpreting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) results - once you've gotten some CSF from that hopefully champagne tap! (A champagne tap meaning a perfectly clear tap that isn't contaminated by red cells!)

In this episode, we go through what's normal in CSF, and a guide as to what should prompt the practitioner to think of bacterial vs. viral causes.
