Understanding D-Dimer in Ghaziabad
What is D-Dimer in Ghaziabad?
Available at an affordable price in Ghaziabad with Tata 1mg labs, a D-Dimer test detects a protein fragment produced when a blood clot dissolves in the body. This test helps diagnose and monitor conditions related to abnormal blood clotting, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), stroke and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Also, this test helps monitor the treatment response to these conditions.
This test may be needed in individuals presenting with symptoms indicative of abnormal blood clotting, such as leg swelling, pain, and redness, as well as symptoms like shortness of breath, chest pain, rapid heartbeat, or signs of abnormal bleeding. Higher than normal D-dimer levels can indicate the presence of an active blood clot. In addition, a D-dimer test also helps understand the risk and progression in cases of pneumonia and COVID-19.
No fasting is required for this test. You can eat and drink normally as per your routine. However, a duly filled coagulation requisition form is mandatory for sample collection.
What does D-Dimer measure?
A D-Dimer test measures the amount of D-dimer protein your body produces when a blood clot begins to break down. It is a byproduct of the blood clotting and clot break-down process that can be measured by analyzing a blood sample. D-dimer is typically undetectable in the blood and is produced only after a clot has formed and is broken down.
