C-Reactive Protein Price in Bangladesh

What is C-Reactive Protein?

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a blood test used to measure inflammation in the body. It helps diagnose and monitor conditions like infections, autoimmune disorders, and heart disease.

No special preparation is needed. During the test, a healthcare provider draws blood, usually from a vein in the arm.

Risks are minimal but may include bruising or slight discomfort. Elevated CRP levels suggest inflammation but are not specific to any one condition.

Results are interpreted alongside other clinical tests. Conditions like pregnancy, obesity, or smoking can affect CRP levels, potentially leading to higher readings.

What to expect & how to prepare

A sample is collected at the centre and analysed in the laboratory. The sample type — blood, urine, stool or another body fluid — depends on the specific test, and the collection staff will tell you which one applies.

• Fasting: only some laboratory tests need fasting, and this varies test by test. Ask the centre whether fasting is required for this specific test when you book, rather than assuming.
• Medication: tell the laboratory about medicines, supplements and recent injections, because some can affect results.
• Requesting slip: bring the doctor's advice or previous reports so the laboratory runs and compares the right test.
• Report timing: turnaround differs between routine and specialised tests — the centre will tell you when your report is ready.

Have a registered doctor interpret the result together with your symptoms rather than self-diagnosing from reference ranges.
