e to results in less than seven minutes. It was the first D-Dimer test automated on IL's ACL systems and since its launch, much has been published about its excellent performance for the diagnosis of both DVT and PE.

About VTE

DVT occurs when a blood clot forms in a large vein, usually in a leg. A potentially fatal PE happens if the blood clot breaks loose, migrates to the lungs and blocks a pulmonary artery or one of its branches. These conditions can occur after any surgery, as well as in patients with spinal fractures and spinal-cord injury, though it is most commonly seen in patients who have recently undergone orthopedic surgery. Two hundred thousand new cases of DVT and PE occur in the US annually and 20% suffer sudden death as a result of PE. Learn more by visiting http://www.preventdvt.org
