About this test

HS-CRP ( Heart Screening ) Test in Wakefield

The hs-CRP test measures high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, detecting even small elevations of CRP in your blood that standard CRP tests would miss. This makes it a powerful tool for assessing low-grade chronic inflammation linked to cardiovascular disease. Even when cholesterol and blood pressure appear normal, raised hs-CRP can reveal hidden cardiovascular risk. No fasting is required.

Who Should Get Tested?

Every three minutes, someone in the UK loses their life to heart and circulatory disease, often without warning. You should consider an hs-CRP test if you have a moderate cardiovascular risk (10 to 20% chance of a heart event in 10 years), a history of heart attack, unexplained chest pain or shortness of breath, swelling in the legs or feet, or a strong family history of heart disease. Men over 50 and women over 60 should also consider testing. hs-CRP is particularly useful when standard lipid tests appear normal but cardiovascular risk may still be elevated.

Understanding Your Results

hs-CRP LevelCardiovascular Risk
Below 1 mg/LLow risk maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular monitoring.
1 to 3 mg/LModerate risk discuss lifestyle changes and prevention strategies with your GP.
Above 3 mg/LHigh risk elevated cardiovascular risk. Further investigation and intervention recommended.

hs-CRP results should be interpreted alongside other risk factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure, and family history. Your clinic team will advise on preventive measures including diet, exercise, and medication if appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

It measures high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, detecting low levels of inflammation in the blood that are linked to cardiovascular disease risk. It is more sensitive than a standard CRP test.
An hs-CRP test at our Wakefield clinics costs £39.00. This includes the blood test, on-site analysis, same-day results, and a consultation to discuss your cardiovascular risk.
A standard CRP test detects high levels of inflammation from infections or acute conditions (8 to 1000 mg/L). The hs-CRP test detects much smaller elevations (0.3 to 10 mg/L) that indicate chronic low-grade inflammation linked to heart disease risk.
Anyone with moderate cardiovascular risk, a family history of heart disease, previous heart attack, unexplained chest pain, or shortness of breath should consider testing. Men over 50 and women over 60 benefit from routine screening.
Results are available in minutes. Your sample is analysed on site at our Wakefield clinic using point-of-care technology.
Yes. hs-CRP measures inflammation, not cholesterol. You can have normal lipid levels but elevated inflammation that still increases your cardiovascular risk. This is exactly why hs-CRP testing adds value beyond standard lipid panels.
