Clinical Overview

Clinical Summary: CRP is a protein produced by the liver that rises rapidly in response to inflammation or acute infection. It is a highly sensitive marker used to identify "silent" inflammation in the body.

What is the CRP Test?

The CRP test measures the concentration of C-Reactive Protein in your blood. High levels often indicate an acute flare-up of a condition or a significant bacterial infection.

Why get tested?

  • To check for serious bacterial infections (like sepsis).
  • To monitor recovery after major surgery.
  • To track inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or arthritis flare-ups.

Result (mg/L) Interpretation

Preparation

No special preparation is needed, though some doctors suggest avoiding heavy exercise immediately before the test.
