“…The erythrocyte sedimentation rate test (ESR) measures, in millimeters, the sedimentation of erythrocytes in a standard column after a period of 60 minutes (24) , where red blood cells are neutralized by plasma proteins such as fibrinogen, allowing their stacking aggregation, rather than individually. Thus, during the APR, the increased serum proteins promotes an increase in the ESR (17,21) .…”

“…Primarily described with diagnostic value by Biernacki in 1897 and widespread by Faheus in 1918, the method consists of measuring the speed of separation between erythrocytes and plasma in anticoagulable blood by the addition of compounds with anticoagulant properties. This ESR measurement is performed after a minimum rest of 60 minutes and expressed in millimeters per hour (mm/h) (Soares & Santos, 2009;Grzybowski & Sak, 2011;Buck et al, 2011).…”

Erythrocyte Sedimentation Velocity (ESR) is a simple and routine laboratory investigation method in the veterinary clinic for the evaluation of infectious-inflammatory processes and a general indicator of animal welfare. In a systematic review, we evaluated the surroundings of the sensitivity potential of the ESR in the diagnosis of different pathologies in horses. Therefore, a careful search was carried out in Pubmed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web of Science and SciELO databases for randomized clinical trials until 2021, which culminated in the literary review of five studies. We evidenced five breeds of horses evaluated through ESR methodologies that varied between the standard Westergren method or the modified Westergren method, with the use of different anticoagulants, such as: ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), citrate and heparin. The ESR showed diagnostic sensitivity and positive correlation with complementary laboratory parameters, such as: hemoglobin, plasma proteins, leukocyte count and red blood cell count. We also emphasize the need for studies with other races and modulations of stress and pathological conditions, especially covering other nationalities and the peculiarities in which they are inserted.

RESUMOProteína C reativa (PCR) e Velocidade de Hemossedimentação (VHS), conhecidos como biomarcadores inflamatórios, são utilizados para avaliar resposta inflamatória de fase aguda, mas podem apresentar-se alterados em processos fisiológicos. Desta forma, este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar PCR e VHS como marcadores de processo inflamatório, correlacionando seus resultados de acordo com idade e o gênero. Foi realizado um estudo transversal retrospectivo em um laboratório da cidade de Aracaju, Sergipe, no período de Janeiro de 2013 a Janeiro de 2014, com análise de 249 resultados para VHS e PCR de pacientes com faixa etária entre 5 e 97 anos. Os resultados demonstraram que valores para VHS e PCR acima dos limites de referência foram mais predominantes na faixa etária entre 20-59 anos, assim como também os resultados aumentados simultaneamente para estes exames apresentaram-se com níveis elevados nos adultos. Apesar da PCR e da VHS nem sempre correlacionarem de forma harmoniosa, não devem nunca ser avaliadas isoladamente e o quadro clínico do paciente deve sempre estar associado a interpretação dos resultados para a obtenção de um diagnóstico confiável. PALAVRAS-CHAVES:Proteína C Reatina; Velocidade de Hemossedimentação; Inflamação. C-REACTIVE PROTEIN AND ERYTHROCYTE HEMOSEDIMENTATION RATE IN THE LABORATORY EVALUATION OF INFLAMMATORY PROCESSES ABSTRACTC-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), known as inflammatory biomarkers are used to assess inflammatory acute phase response, but may change in physiological processes present themselves.Thus, this study aims to assess CRP and ESR as markers of inflammation, correlating their results according to age and gender. A retrospective cross-sectional study in a laboratory in the city of Aracaju, Sergipe was conducted between January 2013 to January 2014, with analysis of 249 results for ESR and CRP in patients aged between 5 and 97 years. The results showed that values for ESR and CRP levels above the reference limits were more prevalent in the age group between 20-59 years, as well as the increased simultaneously for these exams results presented with elevated levels in adults. Despite the CRP and ESR does not always correlate in a harmonious way, must never be evaluated separately and the clinical picture of the patient must always be associated with the interpretation of the results to obtain a reliable diagnosis.KEYWORDS: Protein C Reatina; Hemosedimentation Rate; Inflammation.Scire Salutis, Aquidabã, v.4, n.1, Out, Nov, Dez 2013, Jan, Fev, Mar 2014 Aquidabã, v.4, n.1, p.6-16, 2014.

A velocidade de hemossedimentação avalia resposta de fase aguda de forma lenta, diferente da PCR, que se altera primeiro que a VHS, pois sua avaliação é indireta e não depende de uma proteína específica para se alterar. Assim, a PCR é um exame de maior sensibilidade, alta reprodutib...
