When is a CRP (C-Reactive Protein) test recommended?
- A C-Reactive Protein test is recommended if there is any inflammation caused due to infections. It helps in diagnosing any chronic inflammatory disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus.
- It also helps to detect any heart disease and evaluates your risk of a heart attack.
What does it measure?
- Determine if someone’s symptoms are related to inflammatory or non-inflammatory conditions. The result, along with other findings, can help narrow down the possible causes.
- The C-Reactive Protein levels can also indicate if the inflammation is acute (severe and sudden, such as with an allergic reaction) or chronic (persistent, such as diabetes, heart disease, atherosclerosis, or myocarditis).
- The higher the C-Reactive Protein levels, the greater the amount of inflammation in the body.
- The C-Reactive Protein Test is performed with another blood test called Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate. These are both non-specific markers for inflammation but together can offer important clues as to what is going on in the body.
