  • Title: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate/zeta sedimentation rate.
    Author: Talkers R.
    Journal: Emerg Med Clin North Am; 1986 Feb; 4(1):87-93. PubMed ID: 3512248.
    Abstract:
    Sedimentation rates are a vital laboratory adjunct to the clinical skills of the emergency physician. A patient with an elevated rate in the emergency department needs further evaluation and appropriate referral. If the test is markedly elevated, there is a 95 per cent chance of an infectious, inflammatory, or neoplastic process as the underlying cause.
