A member asked:
Is a d dimer of 0.44 elevated ? i went to the e r &&- they did no tests and sent me home .. i am so scared .!

Not elevated d dimer: The cut-off of 500ng/ml allows the exclusion of VTE. A positive value is difficult to interpret, because several disease states may lead to increased d-dimer values.
