The ESR test is a blood test used to help detect and monitor inflammation in the body. It measures how quickly red blood cells settle in a standardized tube over a specified period. ESR is a nonspecific test, which means an increased or decreased ESR does not by itself identify a specific disease. Topics Covered in This Video: • What is ESR Test? • Full form of ESR • Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate • Principle of ESR test • How ESR test is performed • Westergren method • ESR normal range • Increased ESR • Decreased ESR • Causes of high ESR • Causes of low ESR • Clinical significance of ESR • Uses of ESR test • Factors affecting ESR • ESR interpretation • ESR and inflammation • ESR vs CRP • Important points for nursing exams ESR Test – Important Exam Point A faster-than-expected settling of RBCs can be associated with inflammation, but ESR alone cannot diagnose the specific cause. Clinical history, symptoms and other laboratory investigations are considered along with the ESR result. This lecture is useful for: B.Sc.
