The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, females is 0-20 millimeters per hour. The sedimentation rate can be slightly more elevated in the elderly.
When your sedimentation rate gets higher then normal it is an indication that there is a problem with inflammation somewhere in your body. This method will only tell you that there is inflammation and will not tell you what the cause f the inflammation is. In the case of Rheumatoid Arthritis it is one of several tests and observations used to finally come to a diagnosis.

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.
