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

C-Reactive Protein is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your C-Reactive Protein result rather than self-diagnosing.
