D-Dimer High What does that mean?


Restoring balance, one patient at a time.
High D-dimer indicates possible pregnancy or deep vein thrombosis, malignant tumor and other diseases.
1.
D-dimer produced by fibrin degradation increases after pregnancy, so D-dimer accumulates in the body, so there will be an increase in D-dimer levels.
2. Deep vein thrombosis Deep vein
thrombosis is related to increased blood viscosity, which can initiate the fibrinolytic process of the body, leading to the degradation of fibrin polymers, forming D-dimer, causing D-dimer to increase.
3. Malignant tumors
Malignant tumors can release vasoactive substances, activate the coagulation system, and cause venous blood coagulation to produce thrombosis. The body will self-regulate to promote fibrin degradation D-dimer, resulting in high D-dimer levels.
