ESR (Westergren), EDTA Test Price in Haridwar

Available at Max Lab at the best prices in Haridwar, the ESR test or Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate test can help detect inflammation in the body. While the test is not a stand-alone diagnostic tool, it can help diagnose as well as monitor an inflammatory condition.

Overview of the ESR (Westergren) Test

When anticoagulated whole blood is placed in an upright tube, known as the Westergren Tube, the red blood cells start descending through the plasma to accumulate at the bottom of the tube. This process is called sedimentation and the rate at which red blood cells fall over a period of one hour is referred to as the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, ESR, or sed rate. The test is performed to detect the presence of diseases, conditions, or infections that may be causing inflammation in the body. The ESR test cannot directly help in the diagnosis of a particular condition and is generally prescribed along with other tests, like the CBC (complete blood count) and CRP (C-reactive protein) tests. The ESR may be prescribed by itself if it is being performed to monitor an existing condition. However, as there are several conditions and health issues that can affect the ESR, the test can be used to detect inflammatory conditions in the body but not to diagnose the cause behind it. The test does however provide a better understanding of the amount of inflammation in the body, helping doctors know what further tests may be required.

When is the ESR Test Performed?

If a person is displaying symptoms of health conditions or diseases that can affect the sedimentation rate of blood, they may be asked to undergo the ESR test. It can also be used to study inflammatory conditions like arthritis. People who have been diagnosed with such a condition may also be recommended to book a well-priced ESR test package in Haridwar for regular testing to help the doctor monitor the efficacy of treatment.

Some of the symptoms that may indicate the need for undergoing an ESR test include:

However, pregnancy, age, minor infections, gender, health, etc. are factors that can affect the sedimentation rate of blood, which is why it is important to consult a doctor with the results, so a proper prognosis can be done.
