erythrocytes sedimentation rate (ESR) Westergren method
An ESR of 120 indicates that you have a problem with inflammation it does not however indicate what the cause of the inflammation is.
A sedimentation rate is blood test that can detect and monitors inflammation in the body.
It is a measurement of the red blood cells (erythrocytes) sedimenting in a tube over a given period of time. this test is referred to as an ESR.
Red blood cells settle in the bottom of the test tube given time leaving leaving the blood serum visible above. The sedimentation rate is simply how far the top of the RBC layer has fallen (in millimeters) in one hour. The sedimentation rate increases with more inflammation.
The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, and for females is 0-20 millimeters per hour. The sedimentation rate can be slightly more elevated in the elderly and is much lower for children.
