What is D-dimer?
D-dimer is a protein fragment (small piece) that’s made when a blood clot dissolves in your body. Blood clotting is an important process that prevents you from losing too much blood when you are injured. Normally, your body will dissolve the clot once your injury has healed.
Is a well established rapid automated quantitative immune turbidimetric assay that has been used for the quantitative determination of D-dimer levels?
The STA-Liatest D-Di (Stago, Asnières sur Seine, France) is a well established, rapid, automated, quantitative immune-turbidimetric assay that has been used for the quantitative determination of D-dimer levels.
Is D dimer a cardiac biomarker?
Conclusion: D-Dimer, an expression of ongoing thrombus formation and lysis, is a marker of substantial incremental value for the early diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes presenting with chest pain. It adds independent information to the traditional assessment for myocardial infarction.
