Measurement and clinical significance of D-dimer during perioperative period in advanced age patients with hip fracture / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the change and clinical significance of blood D-dimer level during perioperative period in ad-vanced age hip fracture.Methods The blood D-dimer level in 60 patients aged over 80 years old with hip fracture was detected be-fore operation and after operation,which including at admission(T1 ),immediately preoperation(T2 ),immediately postoperation (T3 )and on postoperative 1 d (T4 ).Results The positive rates of D-dimer at T1 ,T2 ,T3 and T4 were 6.67%,16.45%,41.67%and 80.00% respectively;there were statistically significant differences between T3 ,T4 and T1 ,T2 ,between T3 and T4 (P 0.05).Conclusion The level of D-dimer in advanced age hip fracture has significant change before and after operation.The change of the D-dimer positive rate is an effective index for preven-ting lower limbs deep venous thrombosis and has the important clinical significance to dynamically monitor the D-dimer level during perioperative period in advanced age hip fracture.
