ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) (HM0033)

Description

ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) is a non-specific blood test used to assess inflammation in the body. It measures the rate at which red blood cells settle in a vertical tube over a fixed period, typically one hour. Elevated ESR levels are associated with infections, autoimmune disorders, chronic inflammatory conditions, malignancies, and tissue injury. ESR is commonly used to monitor disease activity and response to treatment rather than to establish a specific diagnosis.
