About C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Test
CRP is a rapid-acting blood protein that rises fast in case of infection, inflammation, tissue damage, or even some autoimmune conditions. A blood test to check CRP levels can help the doctor know if there is any inflammation and its severity, and to monitor treatment. The CRP test is useful as a screening tool in determining the cause of inflammation, but it cannot actually determine the specific cause.
What is a C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Test?
A blood test that detects the levels of C-Reactive Protein in the bloodstream is called the CRP Test. Any conditions that cause inflammation, autoimmune disorders, bacterial or viral infections, or damaged tissue could result in high CRP levels. Often ordered for the diagnosis of inflammatory disorders, to check the course of treatment, or to evaluate recovery from infection or surgery.
