    What Is an High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein (HSCRP) Test?

    The High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (HSCRP) test is a more advanced version of the standard C-reactive protein (CRP) test. It can identify even slight inflammation in the body. CRP is a type of protein that the liver produces and releases into the bloodstream when inflammation occurs.

    This test is particularly helpful for evaluating heart health. High HSCRP levels have been linked to a greater risk of heart attack, stroke, sudden cardiac death, and peripheral arterial disease, even in those with no known heart issues. It also provides additional risk assessment for individuals with heart conditions, complementing standard factors like cholesterol levels, metabolic syndrome, and blood pressure. By detecting minor inflammation changes, this test helps pinpoint individuals at risk of heart disease, allowing for early detection and better prevention.

    If you are in Mumbai and want an easy way to check your heart health, book the HSCRP test at home today.

    High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein (HSCRP) Test Parameters

    The HSCRP test measures the amount of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in the blood.

    CRP is a protein made in the liver that increases when the body experiences inflammation. This test is highly sensitive, detecting even slight rises in CRP that may not be picked up by a standard CRP test. Since inflammation plays a significant role in heart disease, the HSCRP test is used to assess the likelihood of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular issues.

    • Cautions Before Taking the HSCRP Test

    Some medicines can impact the results. Make sure to inform your doctor about any medications or supplements you are taking, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen and aspirin. However, do not stop any prescribed medication without your doctor’s advice.

    Why Take the High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein (HSCRP) Test?

    The HSCRP test is an effective way to detect inflammation, especially for evaluating heart health. It plays a crucial role in:

    • Measuring inflammation accurately: Identifies even very low levels of inflammation, which may signal underlying health concerns.

    • Assessing heart disease risk and categorisation: Helps predict the chances of stroke, heart attack, sudden cardiac death, and peripheral arterial disease while also classifying risk levels as low, moderate, or high.

    • Detecting early inflammation: Finds inflammation even in people without a history of heart disease or any visible symptoms.

    • Providing more comprehensive risk analysis: Adds valuable insights beyond common heart health factors such as metabolic syndrome, cholesterol levels, and blood pressure.

    • Encouraging prevention and early action: Supports lifestyle changes and medical interventions that can lower heart disease risks.
