A Westergren sedimentation rate (ESR) of 31 mm/hr indicates the rate at which red blood cells settle in a vertical tube over one hour. This value is considered elevated, as normal ESR typically ranges from 0 to 20 mm/hr for men and 0 to 30 mm/hr for women, depending on age and other factors. An elevated ESR can suggest the presence of inflammation, infection, or other medical conditions. Further clinical correlation and testing may be needed to determine the underlying cause.
