What does a sedimentation rate of 45 mmhr mean?

The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, and for females is 0-20 millimetres per hour. The sedimentation rate can be slightly more elevated in the elderly and is much lower for children. A sedimentation rate is raised when there is some sort of inflammation either as the result of infection or an autoimmune condition like Rheumatoid arthritis.


Who discovered sedimentation?

Sedimentation was discovered by Reuss in 1809. Sedimentation is the suspension of particles that settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier.


What does it mean if the sedimentation rate is 55 and c- creative protein is within normal?

What does high sedimentation rate mean?

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (sed rate) blood test measures how quickly red blood cells (erythrocytes) settle in a test tube in one hour. The more red cells that settle to the bottom of the test tube within the hour, the higher the sed rate. The sedimentation rate indicates that there is inflammation somewhere in the system.


What does sedimentation rate 1 mean?

sedimentation rates may vary from lab to lab with measurement methods, however normal sedimentation rates are considered to be up to 10 millimeters an hour in men and up to 20 an hour in women and the elderly. Sedimentation rates detect infection or inflammation. it can not determine the cause of the problem. and can give false positive readings in healthy people. If there are symptoms of for instance vasculitis or other autoimmune conditions further test may be initiated if the reading is high in order to come up with an effective treatment.

What does a chronically high sedimentation rate indicate?

A high sedimentation rate (ESR) indicates inflammation in the body somewhere. The sedimentation rate wil not indicate the cause of the inflammation. However a chronic sedimentation rat can indicate an Autoimmune problem like rheumatoid arthritis.
