What does a low result mean?

A low or undetectable value provides robust reassurance against active abnormal blood clots.

What does a high result mean?

A moderate rise occurs very frequently with advancing age, recent bruising, inflammation, or following minor surgery.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • How does this result relate to my current clinical symptoms?
  • Could a recent bruise, injury, or minor inflammation explain this?
  • Are any complementary investigations indicated in my situation?
