What is Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate Guide about?

The Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) test measures how fast red blood cells sediment in a tube of blood over one hour. Normally, red blood cells settle slowly but the rate increases in inflammatory conditions proportional to disease severity.

The test must be done at room temperature and read exactly at the one hour mark to obtain an accurate result. Reference inte
