Description

The Rheumatoid Factor Panel helps diagnose and monitor rheumatoid arthritis and related autoimmune conditions; patients in China may need it for joint pain or swelling evaluation, with lab costs typically ranging ¥500–¥1000, and ChinaMedicalHub assists with hospital booking and interpreter support.

Main Uses

The Rheumatoid Three Tests (RF, CRP, ESR) are primarily used for diagnosing and monitoring the progression of rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory or autoimmune conditions. They help in assessing the level of inflammation in the body and can guide treatment decisions.

Normal Range

The Rheumatoid Factor (RF) should be <20 IU/mL, C-Reactive Protein (CRP) should be <1.0 mg/dL, and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) for males is 0-15 mm/hr and for females is 0-20 mm/hr.

Low Values - Possible Causes

Low values are less common and usually not clinically significant; however, they can sometimes indicate a lack of inflammatory or autoimmune activity, successful treatment of an existing condition, or in the case of RF, simply mean that the individual does not have rheumatoid arthritis or another RF-positive condition.

High Values - Possible Causes

High RF levels may indicate rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome, or other autoimmune diseases. Elevated CRP suggests inflammation, infection, or tissue damage. An increased ESR can point to conditions like infections, inflammations, malignancies, or autoimmune diseases.
