An Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) test is a foundational blood test used by doctors to measure how quickly red blood cells settle at the bottom of a test tube in one hour. A faster rate typically indicates inflammation or infection within the body.
Key Highlights of the ESR Test:
Why it’s needed: It helps in detecting infections, diagnosing autoimmune diseases like Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) or SLE, and monitoring the progress of ongoing treatments.
What it detects: Useful in identifying infections, pulmonary diseases, liver disorders, thyroid issues, and chronic conditions.
Normal Range: Generally 0 - 15text{ mm/hr} for males and 0 - 20text{ mm/hr} for females (values may vary slightly based on age and laboratory standards).
