hs-CRP Test — Inflammation Self-Test

High-sensitivity CRP test (hs-CRP) for home

CRP (C-reactive protein) is the most important inflammation marker in blood. The high-sensitivity variant (hs-CRP) detects even low values and indicates silent, chronic inflammation — an established risk marker for cardiovascular disease.

• Measures hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) in mg/l
• Detects even minimal inflammation levels below classical CRP tests
• Sample by fingertip blood drop
• Analysis in accredited medical laboratory
• Recommended for suspected chronic inflammatory processes or as cardiac risk marker

Why recommended — evidence: Silent inflammation is a recognised risk factor for heart attack and stroke (Ridker et al., NEJM 2002). The JUPITER trial showed that hs-CRP predicts cardiovascular events independent of cholesterol levels.
