What is a C-reactive protein?

C-reactive protein is an acute phase protein that is the fastest indicator of tissue damage during trauma, necrosis, and inflammatory conditions.

Why is C-reactive protein analysis prescribed?

A C-reactive protein test is prescribed to diagnose conditions that cause inflammation.

This protein is produced in the liver - high concentrations indicate an inflammatory process is taking place in the body.

Determination of the norm of C-reactive protein is recommended for the diagnosis and control of infectious and inflammatory diseases, necrotic lesions, and tumor processes.

It should be noted that the C-reactive protein test is more sensitive than standard testing, which means that the physician is allowed to assess the risk of developing coronary artery disease. Early monitoring and management of the condition can prevent life-threatening complications - for example, early treatment of coronary artery disease can prevent heart attack.

The test is prescribed to assess the possible inflammatory process in the body.

Inflammation may be an indication of infection or chronic inflammatory disease.

Is preparation needed before analysis?

Keep in mind that some medications affect the amount of C-reactive protein, so it is important to inform your doctor before getting tested.

After the procedure

After the C-reactive protein analysis, you will return to your normal rhythm of life without any discomfort; There is no need to change the agenda due to the analysis.

C-reactive protein and Covid-19

For the diagnosis of coronavirus, the determination of C-reactive protein in the blood serum is provided.

It is noteworthy that with coronavirus infection, the level of C-reactive protein increases; Its frequency correlates somewhat with the severity of the disease and prognosis. An increase in C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate is observed in most patients.
