Investigation Observed Value Unit Biological Reference Interval

Calprotectin 47.40 µg/g < 50
(Stool,CLIA) Please note change in Method

Interpretation:

Fecal Calprotectin as a screening test-

Result Interpretation
0-50 µg/g Within Biological Reference Interval
50-100 µg/g Most likely to be associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
100 to 250 µg/g Considered as indeterminate and should be re-evaluated within
in 2 weeks
Above 250 µg/g highly suggestive of Inflammatory Bowel Disease(IBD).
Fecal Calprotectin as a monitoring test-
• Values above 150 µg/g are strongly indicative of endoscopically and/or histologically evident disease activity in a known
case of Inflammatory Bowel Disease(IBD).
Clinical Utility

• Fecal calprotectin is a direct measure of inflammation in the gut and is directly correlates to disease activity in Inflammatory
Bowel Disease (IBD).
• Faecal calprotectin concentrations relate well to disease activity in the inflammatory bowel diseases and can therefore be
used to monitor therapy.
Note:
• Other intestinal ailments, including GI infections, polyps, NSAIS usage and colorectal cancer, can result in elevated
concentrations of fecal calprotectin
• Diagnosis of IBD cannot be established solely on the basis of an abnormal calprotectin results.
• Patients with IBD fluctuate between active and inactive stages of disease. Hence fecal calprotectin results may also
fluctuate
• GI bleeding of as much as 100 mL per day will increase the fecal calprotectin levels by only 15 µg/g.
