CRP-Screen Test
The C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a sensitive and fast appearing indicator used to diagnose bacterial infectious disease and inflammatory disorders which could therefore be helpful for deciding an antibiotic treatment.
Depending on the CRP concentration, different lines will appear allowing the semi-quantitative interpretation of the test result.
In healthy patients, CRP concentration is lower than 8mg/L while the concentration level can go higher than 100mg/L in case of severe infection or during inflammatory process. Intermediate levels, within 8 and 100mg/L, are concomitant with more or less mildly viral or bacterial infections that can be easily overcome by appropriate treatment ordered by your doctor.
CRP-Screen® test should be performed in the case of acute infection symptoms such as feverishness, fever, headaches or weakness.
