Book High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test Near Me

A High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test measures a protein in your blood that rises with inflammation. You might also hear high sensitivity CRP or cardiac CRP. You can book at participating labs on LabFinder and keep everything in one place.

What is High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test and what does it show

The High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test, also called high sensitivity CRP or hsCRP, checks low levels of C-reactive protein in your blood. These levels can help your doctor understand inflammation in your body and your long-term heart risk.

Who should get a hs-CRP test

Common reasons: your doctor is checking heart health risk, you have risk factors like high cholesterol or diabetes, you are tracking ongoing inflammation, or you need a baseline before starting a new care plan. If you are unsure, LabFinder’s physician oversight helps confirm the right test for you.

How long does a hs-CRP test take and what to expect

You will check in, review your info, and have a small blood sample taken from your arm. Most visits take 15 to 30 minutes, and the blood draw itself takes only a few minutes. The team will guide you and keep you comfortable.

Is a hs-CRP test safe and what are the risks

Yes, this is a quick, routine blood draw and is considered very safe. You might feel a quick pinch, notice a small bruise, or feel a little lightheaded for a moment afterward, but those effects usually fade quickly. Be sure to tell the staff if you take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, a rash or infection where blood will be drawn, or if you have fainted during blood draws before. They will take extra care to keep you comfortable. Recent hard exercise or a current cold can raise hs-CRP for a short time, so ask your doctor if you should wait until you feel well.

How to prepare for a hs-CRP test

Simple prep: fasting isn’t usually needed. Drink water so your veins are easy to find. Avoid heavy workouts the day before and the morning of your draw. Bring a photo ID, insurance card, and a list of medicines. Follow any instructions from your doctor or the lab.

Related conditions a hs-CRP test may help evaluate

Heart and blood vessel risk, ongoing inflammation, infections, flare ups from conditions like arthritis, and recovery after illness. Your doctor will review your results along with your history and symptoms before recommending any next steps.
