High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test – At-Home Heart and Inflammation Health Check
Fast, Accurate, and Private hs-CRP Testing in the UK
The High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test from Repose Healthcare is a simple, reliable at-home blood test that measures very small amounts of C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation in the body. Unlike the standard CRP test, which detects higher levels of inflammation linked to acute infections or autoimmune conditions, the hs-CRP test can detect much lower levels of CRP, making it particularly valuable in assessing cardiovascular risk.
Our easy-to-use kit allows you to check your heart health and inflammation levels from the comfort of your own home, with professional laboratory results delivered securely online.
What is hs-CRP?
C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a protein produced by the liver in response to inflammation. The high-sensitivity CRP test (hs-CRP) is a more advanced version that can detect much lower concentrations of CRP, measured in mg/L.
This makes hs-CRP an important tool for evaluating low-grade inflammation that may not be obvious but could play a role in long-term health conditions, especially heart disease and stroke risk.
Why Take a High-Sensitivity CRP Test?
You may benefit from an hs-CRP test if you:
-
Want to check your risk of cardiovascular disease
-
Have family history of heart disease or stroke
-
Experience symptoms such as chest pain, fatigue, or shortness of breath
-
Are managing high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or diabetes
-
Want to track the effect of lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, or quitting smoking
-
Have been advised by your doctor to assess inflammation levels
Conditions Linked to Abnormal hs-CRP Levels
Raised hs-CRP levels may indicate:
-
Increased cardiovascular disease risk
-
Low-grade chronic inflammation linked to obesity, diabetes, or smoking
-
Metabolic syndrome
-
Autoimmune disorders in early stages
-
Poor lifestyle factors contributing to heart strain
Normal hs-CRP levels suggest:
-
Lower risk of inflammation-related cardiovascular disease
-
No significant underlying low-grade inflammation
Understanding Your hs-CRP Results
Your results will be reported in mg/L. Typical ranges include:
-
Low risk: < 1.0 mg/L
-
Moderate risk: 1.0 – 3.0 mg/L
-
High risk: > 3.0 mg/L
While hs-CRP alone cannot diagnose heart disease, it provides valuable information when considered alongside cholesterol, blood pressure, and lifestyle factors. Doctors often use hs-CRP to identify people who may benefit from preventive lifestyle changes or treatment.
hs-CRP vs Standard CRP
-
Standard CRP test: Detects higher levels of CRP, useful for diagnosing infections, autoimmune conditions, and acute inflammation.
-
hs-CRP test: Detects much lower levels, making it useful for identifying long-term cardiovascular risk and subtle inflammation.
If you are interested in infection-related inflammation, the standard CRP test may be more suitable. For heart health and long-term inflammation, the hs-CRP test is recommended.
