D-dimer is normally undetectable in the blood and is produced only after a clot has formed and is in the process of being broken down. When there is significant formation and break down of blood clots in the body, the D-dimer blood level can rise. The D-dimer test measures the level in the blood. For a person who is at low or intermediate risk for thrombosis and/or thrombotic embolism, the strength of the D-dimer test is in its negative predictive value in a hospital emergency room setting. That means that a negative D-dimer test indicates that it is highly unlikely that a thrombus is present.
The major advantage of the D-dimer test is the excellent NPV in the appropriate clinical setting. However, since the positive predictive value (PPV) of the test is low, positive results cannot be used alone in the diagnosis of DVT/pulmonary embolism.
