Term Description

D-dimer is considered a coagulation or hemostasis assay and will usually require platelet poor plasma (PPP); tests done on whole blood are the exception. Some assays do not specify PPP (e.g. VIDAS D-Dimer Exclusion II, Biomerieux, Inc) per se but the whole blood is spun down to yield plasma, which will be low in platelets. Spinning is the most common way to obtain plasma low in platelets.

Change Reason
The EIA method, which was always intended to cover more than just enzyme-linked immunoassay and whose display name for the long common name has always been Immunoassay, was renamed IA in order to eliminate ambiguity about whether the method has a broader meaning than just enzyme-linked immunoassay. Likewise, EIA.rapid was renamed IA.rapid. These changes were approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
