VIDAS D-dimer: fast quantitative ELISA for measuring D-dimer in plasma.
VIDAS D-dimer (bioMérieux) is a new quantitative ELISA for D-dimer determination designed for the VIDAS automated system. The test contains single-dose, ready-to-use reagents and is completed within 35 min. Quantitative results are obtained from a calibration curve stored in the software of the system and expressed as fibrinogen equivalent units. The two-step capture/tag test relies on two comp...
متن کاملWeil's disease with elevated plasma D-dimer.
We report a case of Weil's disease manifesting elevation of plasma D-dimer in the acute phase. Later, in the convalescent phase after treatment, the plasma levels of D-dimer returned to normal. Plasma D-dimer can be used as a marker of fibrin formation and degradation. Based on our observations, we conjecture that fibrin formation and fibrinolysis may occur in the acute phase of Weil's disease.
متن کاملPlasma Fibrinogen and D-dimer in Children With Sepsis: A Single-center Experience
Background & Objectives: In sepsis, enhanced fibrin formation, impaired fibrin degradation, and intravascular fibrin deposition lead to a prothrombotic state. The current study aimed at measuring various coagulation parameters to predict an early marker for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Methods: The current prospective s...
متن کاملD Dimer Assay
Introduction A new test for determination of circulating fibrin degradation products has recently been marketed in the U.S. Known genericaUy as the D-dimer assay, it is a direct latex agglutination assay employing monoclonal anubody specific for digestion products of crosslinked fibrin. It is offered as an alternative to or replacement for the widely available Thrombo-Wellcotest assay for fibri...
متن کاملComparing D-dimer assays
• Including many patients with elevated D-dimer concentrations due to other causes than VTE may give a false increase in sensitivity and negative predictive value • The prevalence of VTE has an influence on the predictive values – higher prevalence gives lower NPV • A high ratio of proximal to distal DVT will increase both the sensitivity and the negative predictive value • A study focused on P...
