FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves determining C-reactive protein concentration using latex diagnosticum containing gamma-globulin to the C-reactive protein. C-reactive protein concentration in blood being observed to be lower than 20 mg%, the process is diagnosed as one of minimum activity. The level being 20-90 mg%, the process is diagnosed as one of moderate activity. The concentration being higher than 90 %, high activity process is considered to be the case. EFFECT: high accuracy of diagnosis.
