The High-sensitivity CRP test measures C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in the blood, a marker of inflammation that can indicate an increased risk of heart disease and other chronic conditions. High levels of CRP can signal ongoing inflammation in the body, which is linked to cardiovascular problems. This test is particularly useful for individuals with risk factors for heart disease, helping to inform lifestyle changes or treatments to reduce inflammation and improve overall health.

About This Test

Reason to Check It

"The discovery of the biomarker called CRP has revolutionized our ability to characterize the inflammatory disease state of the cardiovascular system. CRP is a critical component of the immune system, a complex set of proteins that our bodies make in response to acute infections, trauma and metabolic disturbance.

CRP elevation demonstrates that its presence alone can indicate significant vascular aging, even in the absence of the usual lipid disorders that are commonly seen. CRP elevations between 2-10 are concerning for chronic cardiometabolic disease, while CRP’s above 10 may indicate autoimmune disease, acute infection, or even cancer." - Dr. Alan Hopkins
