==Overview==
==Overview==
Elevated levels of D-dimer signify the activation of hemostasis and fibrinolytic pathway.  It is a non-specific marker that has been widely implicated in acute venous thromboembolism (VTE).  However, D-dimer levels are also increased in patients with other conditions, such as [[cancer]], [[pregnancy]], [[infections]], [[trauma]], and [[surgery|recent surgery]].<ref name="pmid18608117">{{cite journal| author=Lippi G, Franchini M, Targher G, Favaloro EJ| title=Help me, Doctor!

Overview

Elevated levels of D-dimer signify the activation of hemostasis and fibrinolytic pathway. It is a non-specific marker that has been widely implicated in acute venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, D-dimer levels are also increased in patients with other conditions, such as cancer, pregnancy, infections, trauma, and recent surgery.[1]
