High-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) measures very low levels of CRP in your blood, which is a marker for inflammation in blood vessel walls. Elevated hs-CRP is associated with increased risk of heart attack and stroke, even in people with normal cholesterol. It's often ordered alongside a lipid panel for a more complete cardiovascular risk assessment.
High-sensitivity CRP measures low-grade inflammation in the body. Strongly associated with cardiovascular event risk independent of cholesterol.
Anyone over 40 doing a heart-health workup, people with a family history of cardiovascular disease, anyone monitoring chronic inflammation, athletes tracking recovery markers.
