A significant rise in ASO titre, usually above 200 IU/mL, is suggestive of a recent streptococcal infection.
It is important to note that ASO titres can be elevated in conditions other than streptococcal infections, and not all patients with a streptococcal infection will have an elevated ASO titre.
Serial measurements of ASO titres can be useful in tracking the course of the infection or the effectiveness of treatment, as titres typically decline with successful treatment or resolution of the infection.
Next Steps
A detailed history of infection.. time frame.. recovery and present symptoms is needed for evaluation
