INNOVANCE D-Dimer assay
Innovation in D-dimer testing that goes beyond the expected
The INNOVANCE® D-Dimer assay is an automated, particle-enhanced, immunoturbidimetric assay for the quantitative determination of cross-linked fibrin degradation products (D-dimers). The INNOVANCE D-Dimer assay is indicated for use in conjunction with a clinical pretest probability (PTP) assessment model to exclude deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) in outpatients suspected of DVT or PE. In addition, the INNOVANCE D‑Dimer assay can be used as an aid in diagnosis and monitoring of hypercoagulable states in patients at risk or with signs of disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (DIC) or other disorders associated with a hypercoagulability.1
