D-Dimer — Why Take It?

D-dimer eliminates the threat of thromboembolism or thrombosis. When blood clots appear in the body, the concentration of D-dimer protein in the blood increases to dissolve the blood clot. In a healthy person, the concentration of D-dimer is insignificant. But when small blood clots appear in the heart or the veins of the legs, small pelvis, and other organs, D-dimer immediately increases tenfold. At this point, the doctor may immediately start looking for the thrombosis zone and take measures to protect the patient. D-dimer can also increase in pregnant women, patients with cancer, and those aged 80 and older.
