D-DIMER (PLASMA)
INTERPRETATION
D-DIMER (PLASMA)-1.Fibrin Degradation products,which are highly heterogeneous soluble fragments,are a result of two
simultaneous phenomena:-
*The fibrin clot is dissolved by plasmin into soluble fragments released into blood.The terminal product of fibrinolysis is Ddimer.
2.
DDimer is the only marker of thrombotic disorders which effectively determines the presence of stabilized fibrin.
5.Several physiological or clinical situations may lead to an increase in level of D-dimer,other than the unexpected appearance of
thrombosis (age,pregnancy,hematomas,infectious or inflammatory syndromes,cancers etc).
*A value of DDimer below cut off when combined with a clinical assessment of low pretest probability has been shown to exclude
DVT or PE with a high negative predective value (>90 %)
