Inflammation
hs-CRP
Also written as High-sensitivity C-reactive protein.
Core panel — run every month
What it indicates
A general marker of inflammation, measured at the low concentrations needed to track small changes.
Why a series helps
hs-CRP can rise sharply for days after an ordinary infection, so one raised reading says little and a run of them says more.
What this page does not tell you
What a particular hs-CRP result means depends on you: your history, your medication, why the test was taken. Ziro does not interpret results for individuals and does not diagnose. If something in your results warrants a conversation, that conversation is with a doctor, and your results are downloadable so you can bring them.
