hs-CRP Test (High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein)

Our hs-CRP Test (High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein) is a blood test designed to measure the level of C-reactive protein (CRP) in your body. This test is highly sensitive and can detect even low levels of CRP, which is a protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation. Elevated levels of CRP in your blood can be a sign of inflammation in your body, which can be an indicator of various health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, infections, and some cancers. The hs-CRP Test is a useful tool for assessing your risk of these conditions and monitoring your response to treatment.

The hs-CRP test, or high-sensitivity C-reactive protein test, is a blood test that measures the level of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the blood. CRP is a protein produced by the liver that is released into the bloodstream in response to inflammation. The hs-CRP test is a more sensitive version of the CRP test and can detect lower levels of CRP in the blood, making it useful in detecting inflammation at an earlier stage.

The hs-CRP test is often used as a marker for assessing the risk of cardiovascular disease, as research has shown that high levels of hs-CRP are associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. It can also be used to monitor inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and inflammatory bowel disease.

The hs-CRP test is a simple blood test that can be done at a laboratory or doctor's office. It does not require any special preparation and is generally considered to be a safe and reliable test. The results of the hs-CRP test are reported as a numerical value in milligrams per liter (mg/L), with higher values indicating a higher level of inflammation in the body.

At healthcare nt sickcare, we offer hs-CRP testing services at our partner NABL certified laboratories to provide accurate and reliable results to our patients. Our online platform allows patients to book their tests and receive their results online, making the testing process convenient and accessible.
