Soluble Fibrin Monomer, Plasma
Use
This test assists in the diagnosis of arterial or venous prethrombotic states in various pathological and clinical situations including disseminated intravascular coagulation/intravascular coagulation and fibrinolysis and postoperative monitoring of surgeries with a high risk of thromboses.
Special Instructions
Only orderable as a reflex through profiles such as ALUPP / Lupus Anticoagulant Profile, Plasma and others.
Limitations
A normal soluble fibrin monomer complex does not exclude the presence of thrombosis or early disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)/intravascular coagulation and fibrinolysis (ICF). Results from lipemic specimens should be interpreted with caution as lipemia can interfere with this assay, causing an underestimation of the soluble fibrin monomer complex level.
