ESR Test in Mehsana

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the ESR Test in Mehsana to measure the rate at which your red blood cells (RBCs) settle to the bottom of a tube.
Overview of the ESR Test
Red blood cells (erythrocytes) slowly settle to the bottom when blood is placed in a thin tube. However, the settling process happens faster in a person suffering from an inflammatory condition. This is because the RBCs clump quickly after interacting with specific proteins. Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR), or Sed rate, is a routine blood test commonly used to indicate inflammation. Though this test is not a specific marker of any disease, it can help your healthcare provider understand the progress of inflammation in the body.
For an accurate opinion, you can head to Sterling Accuris Diagnostics for an ESR Test in Mehsana.
Why and When is an ESR Test Done?
An ESR test is preferred because it is consistent and reliable. Whenever the body is suffering from any infection or inflammation, it generates an immune response. Therefore, increased proteins and chemicals help the body fight infection.
Usually, these proteins are positively charged, and when they contact RBCs (negatively charged), they come together and start clumping, leading to an increase in the ESR. Thus, the more inflammation/infection, the higher the ESR.
A clinician may recommend undergoing this test if a patient is experiencing:
- Unexplained fever
- Joint pain or body aches
- Weakness and fatigue
- Undue weight changes
- Headache
- Reduced appetite
There are several styles for measuring the erythrocyte sedimentation rate. These include the Westergren method, the Wintrobe method, micro-ESR, automated, semi-automated methods, etc.
Sterling Accuris Diagnostics runs an ESR Test in Mehsana that's primarily sensitive and provides accurate results. However, this testing is crucial if you're an at-risk case.
