About the Rheumatoid Factor (RA Factor) Test
Rheumatoid factor (RF) is an antibody that the immune system makes against its own antibodies. It is found in about 70 to 80 percent of people with rheumatoid arthritis, a long-term condition in which inflammation attacks the lining of the joints, typically the small joints of the hands and feet on both sides, with morning stiffness lasting an hour or more. Knowing the RF level helps a doctor classify the arthritis and estimate how active it may become.

|---|---|
| Negative | Below about 14 IU/mL (some labs use below 20 IU/mL) |
| Low positive | Above the cut-off but below about 3 times it |
| High positive | More than about 3 times the lab cut-off |
The cut-off depends on the method used, so read your result against the value on your report. Healthy older adults can have mildly positive values. Ranges are typical adult values and vary between labs, age and sex. Always use the range printed on your report and discuss results with your doctor.
