“…We found 2 negative DD tests out of 30 performed on our patients over 70 years of age, an exclusion rate of 7% while it is over 17% for 23 patients under 70 years of age. A retrospective study of Petitot and al [11] showed 8 cases of negative DD assay in 49 tests performed on patients over 80 years of age with an exclusion rate of 16.3%, while it is over 35% for 70 patients under 80 years of age and even reaches more than 50% for patients under 70 years of age. They found that the usefulness of the test is correlated with the age of the population to which it is applied.…”

“…En effet, chez les patients de plus de 70 ans sans MTEV, le taux moyen de D-dimères est fréquemment supérieur à 500 μg/ml [5]. Donc, la rentabilité des D-dimères pour exclure le diagnostic de MTEV passe de plus de 50 % chez les moins de 70 ans à moins de 23 % chez les plus de 70 ans et jusqu'à moins de 10 % chez les plus de 90 ans [6]. Une étude récente montre qu'un seuil décisionnel à dix fois l'âge du patient, chez les plus de 70 ans ayant une probabilité faible d'EP, serait inté-ressant et ramènerait la rentabilité du test à un niveau comparable au seuil de 500 μg/ml chez les patients de moins de 70 ans sans affecter la VPN [7].…”
