Interpretation of the test results

The results are displayed in micrograms of calprotectin per gram of stool (µg/g). The application also shows you the trends over time.

• Low value (<50 µg/g) – No active inflammation.
• Moderate value (50-200 µg/g) – The value may be elevated, observe the progress or consult a doctor.
• High value (>200 µg/g) – Possibly active inflammation, consult your doctor.

The colour or intensity of the test lines has no influence on the interpretation. Faint lines are always valid and indicate a positive result.

What to do if the result is positive or negative?

What should I do if the test is positive (high value)?

• This means that the inflammatory activity in the intestine may be increased.

• Contact your doctor so that he can assess your situation.

What happens if the test is negative (low value)?

• No active inflammation has been detected.

• This indicates a stable phase of your chronic bowel disease.
