Your laboratory serves a crucial role by providing the ED with the information it needs to make accurate, fast, and safe diagnosis of patients with possible symptoms of PE or DVT. VIDAS D-DIMER EXCLUSION II provides confident exclusion of PE or DVT with a single test. With an exclusion strategy, ED physicians rely on D-dimer tests to rule out PE and DVT.
When used in conjunction with a clinical Pre-Test Probability model (PTP), VIDAS D-DIMER EXCLUSION II allows physicians to exclude deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) when a negative result is obtained. Because VIDAS D-DIMER EXCLUSION II is FDA-cleared for exclusion, no further tests are needed if the results are negative. VIDAS D-DIMER EXCLUSION II provides >99% NPV for all patients, even patients who have been determined to be at a medium risk for pulmonary embolism.
Just One Test. A Clear Answer. The Right Choice.
