Here’s
an interesting article. What’s your D-dimer range? What’s the cut-off for a
suspected embolism?
“In general, they recommend patients with a
low or intermediate pretest probability of pulmonary embolism undergo D-dimer
testing. Those who have a high pretest probability should proceed to imaging.”
Personally I can’t
help but think that this is more evidence to support my stance of just doing a
D-dimer when requested to do so.
