Combined use of pretest clinical probability score and latex agglutination D-dimer testing for excluding acute deep vein thrombosis
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 08/27/09

Yamaki T et al. – Combination of a specific D–dimer level with the clinical probability score is most effective in low–risk PTP patients for excluding DVT. In moderate– and high–risk PTP patients, however, the recommended cutoff points of 1.0 (micro)g/mL may be preferable. These results show that different D–dimer levels for patients differing in risk is feasible for excluding DVT using the latex agglutination D–dimer assay.
