The ESR is an easy, inexpensive, nonspecific test that has been used for many years to help diagnose conditions associated with acute and chronic inflammation, including infections, cancers, and autoimmune diseases.
The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), also called a sedimentation rate, sed rate, or Biernacki Reaction, is the rate at which red blood cells precipitate in a period of 1 hour. It's a common haematology test which is a non-specific measure of inflammation. To perform the test, anticoagulated blood is placed in an upright tube, known as a Westergren tube and the rate at which the red blood cells fall is measured and reported in mm/h.
