Following an acute event, CRP levels can reach values hundreds of times higher than baseline conditions after a few hours. In healthy individuals the concentration of CRP in blood is less than 8 mg/L, this may be higher than 100 mg/L in case of patients with a severe infectious or inflammatory state. Intermediate levels are concomitant with more or less mildly viral or bacterial infections that can be easily overcome by appropriate treatment from a doctor.WHO SHOULD USE THE C-REACTIVE PROTEIN TEST?C-Reactive Protein Test should be performed in case of acute infection symptoms such as feverishness, fever, headaches or weakness. The Test can be performed at any time.HOW DOES THE C-REACTIVE PROTEIN TEST WORK?The C-Reactive Protein Test is an immunochromatographic assay which, thanks to specific antibodies, is able to detect in a semi-quantitative way the level of CRP in blood. Through the appearance of a different number of bands, the C-Reactive Protein Test is able to detect if the concentration of CRP is below 8 ml/L, if it is between 8 and 40 mg/L, between 40 and 100 mg/L or above 100 mg/L. Results at home in just 5 minutes.WHEN SHOULD I DO THE C-REACTIVE PROTEIN TEST?In presence of specific symptoms such as fever, fatigue or headache, it is advisable to perform the CRP Test with the aim of identifying any inflammatory states and to continue with a pharmacological treatment under medical advice.Test Performance:Relative sensitivity: 99%Relative specificity: 96%Relative accuracy: 98%Includes:Instructions for use2 sterile lancets for self-puncture and blood sampling1 antiseptic cleaning gauze1 dropper vial containing the diluent for the Test1 sealed aluminum bag containing:1 Test device1 desiccant sachet1 blood collecting pipette packed singularly outside the Aluminium Pouch * please note this test procedure uses a different pipette from previous test kits and will show a new interpretation of results compared to the previous version About Us We are a well-established and growing family-run company specialising in the supply of healthcare items.
