What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing unexplained bruising, bleeding, or clotting problems, or if you have a serious illness, infection, or injury that puts you at risk for a dangerous clotting condition called disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). It's often used when there's concern that your body is forming tiny blood clots throughout your bloodstream, which can use up clotting factors and lead to both clotting and bleeding at the same time. This test helps identify that process early so it can be addressed quickly.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account as either positive or negative, along with an explanation of what a normal (negative) result looks like versus a positive one. If your result is positive, it usually means further testing and prompt attention are needed, since this can signal a serious clotting problem. You can download a standard lab report from your account at any time, and if you retest in the future, you'll be able to track your results over time using the trends feature.

Who should consider this test?

People who are critically ill, recovering from major trauma, dealing with severe infections, or showing signs of unusual bleeding or clotting are good candidates for this test. It's also useful for people already being monitored for conditions that raise the risk of abnormal clotting, like certain cancers or pregnancy complications. If you've been told you may have early signs of a clotting disorder, this test can offer more clarity.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Watch for symptoms like unusual bruising, small red or purple spots on the skin, bleeding gums, blood in urine or stool, or excessive bleeding from cuts or wounds. Some people also notice symptoms of clotting instead, like swelling, pain, or discoloration in a limb. If you have any of these symptoms along with a serious underlying illness or recent major surgery, this test can help check what's going on.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your sample being collected. Once ready, they'll be uploaded directly to your secure online account, where you can view and download them. You'll get a notification as soon as your report is available.

What is DIC and why does it matter?

DIC stands for disseminated intravascular coagulation, a condition where your body's clotting system goes into overdrive and starts forming small clots throughout your blood vessels. This uses up your normal clotting factors and platelets, which can then lead to serious bleeding elsewhere in the body. It matters because DIC is often linked to serious underlying conditions and needs fast attention to prevent complications.

What does a positive fibrin monomer result mean?

A positive result means there are higher-than-normal levels of a clotting byproduct in your blood, which can be a sign that your body is forming clots more than it should. This is often seen in serious conditions like infections, major trauma, or complications from surgery or pregnancy. If your result is positive, it's important to seek medical care promptly since this can indicate an urgent health issue.

What causes an abnormal fibrin monomer result?

Common causes include severe infections (sepsis), major trauma, certain cancers, complications during pregnancy, and major surgery. These conditions can trigger excess clotting activity in the bloodstream, which shows up as detectable fibrin monomers. Chronic illnesses that affect blood clotting can also contribute to abnormal results.

How often should I retest?

Retesting frequency really depends on your individual health situation and what's driving the initial concern. If you're being closely monitored for an active illness or recovering from a recent event like surgery or infection, more frequent testing (every few days) may be recommended. For general monitoring without acute symptoms, retesting isn't typically necessary unless new symptoms appear.

What should I do if my results are abnormal?

If your result comes back positive, it's important to seek medical care right away, especially if you're also experiencing symptoms like unusual bleeding, swelling, or severe illness, since this can point to a serious and fast-developing condition. In the meantime, avoid strenuous activity that could worsen bleeding or clotting risk. Keep track of any new symptoms and have your lab report ready to share when you seek care.
