Quick answer
The High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein test, often called hs-CRP, measures C-reactive protein at very low levels. Standard CRP testing is useful for detecting active inflammation, but it is not sensitive enough to capture the small differences that relate to cardiovascular risk. This version detects those subtle differences and is interpreted with other heart risk factors.
About this test in North Lauderdale
C-reactive protein is a marker the liver produces in response to inflammation. Low-grade inflammation is thought to play a role in the development of cardiovascular disease, even when no obvious infection or injury is present. A high-sensitivity assay can measure CRP in the low range where standard tests lack the precision to see meaningful differences.
The test uses a blood sample drawn from a vein, and fasting is not typically required, though some laboratories prefer it when the test is combined with a lipid panel. Results are reported as a concentration, and clinicians may use them alongside cholesterol values and other cardiovascular risk factors to build a broader picture.
Clinicians order hs-CRP when they want an additional marker of cardiovascular risk, especially for people whose cholesterol and blood pressure do not fully explain their risk. It is not used to diagnose a heart attack, and an elevated result does not mean a cardiac event is occurring. A healthcare provider interprets it with the person's overall health.
