D-dimer is a small biomarker of coagulation activation and is present in the blood as a blood clot is degraded.
Response Biomedical offers a whole blood quantitative immunoassay D-dimer test, Read more about how this product will help with the challenges labs and physicians face, finding the right D-dimer test for your needs.
VENOUS THROMBOEMBOLISMS ARE DIFFICULT TO DIAGNOSE
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE) are diagnostically challenging conditions that carry a high cost if not recognized and treated promptly.
Accurate diagnosis of DVT and PE remain a problem and with improper testing, risky, expensive, imaging and treatments may be done unnecessarily.
DVT and PE present like many other medical problems, but emergency medicine doctors have no time to waste, and the majority of PE-related deaths occur within the first hour
RAMP D-DIMER TEST
Research shows that the fibrin degradation product D-dimer, in general, is a valuable diagnostic marker used as an aid to the rule-out of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), including thromboembolic events such as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE).
RAMP D-dimer, unlike traditional D-dimer assays, uses EDTA whole blood directly and samples do not require centrifugation and speed up processing time.
