The C-reactive protein (CRP) test is a diagnostic test that measures the levels of C-reactive protein in the blood. CRP is produced by the liver and sent to the bloodstream when inflammation occurs. In general, the CRP test normal range is less than 0.9 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL).
The C-reactive protein (CRP) Quantitative test is done:
- To identify the presence of inflammation
- To monitor the treatment response in cases of inflammatory disorders
- In conditions that cause inflammation such as bacterial infections, sepsis, fungal infection, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune disorders such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, and osteomyelitis
