Emergency evaluation for pulmonary embolism, part 2: Diagnostic approach
2015, Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :It is worth noting that most patients with pregnancy selected by emergency physicians for PE work-up have a low clinical probability (101). No firm guidelines exist to guide the work-up of pregnant patients with suspected PE (102,103). Efforts should be made to avoid fetal exposure to radiation and iodinated contrast (104,105).
Venous thromboembolism and pregnancy
2015, Revue de Medecine InterneD-Dimer levels at different stages of pregnancy in Australian women: A single centre study using two different immunoturbidimetric assays
2012, Thrombosis ResearchCitation Excerpt :However, using the proposed INNOVANCE D-Dimer reference range in pregnancy may be useful in distinguishing between high abnormal results as compared to the modified normal intervals that have been given in this study. Thus D-Dimer in conjunction with the new pregnancy-reference ranges may be used potentially to exclude VTE in pregnancy as this is used successfully in non-pregnant populations [7,10]. Due to the lack of comparability of D-Dimer results obtained with different assays, clinical efficiency of every single assay should be tested in clinical studies.
