All patients underwent D-dimer test and duplex ultrasound. Patients were divided into six 5-year-apart age groups. The optimal cutoff value for each group was calculated by using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, whereby the new age-adjusted D-dimer cutoff value was determined. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive values (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV) were calculated and compared when different D-dimer cutoff values were applied, i.e., conventional 0.5\u00a0mg\/L, previously well-established age-adjusted cutoff value (age\u2009\u00d7\u20090.01\u00a0mg\/L) and the new age-adjusted D-dimer cutoff value herein.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>There were 2759 patients included, 887 males and 1872 females, with an average age of 78\u00a0years. In total, 280 patients were diagnosed with preoperative DVT. The optimal cutoff values for the six age groups were 0.715\u00a0mg\/L, 1.17\u00a0mg\/L, 1.62\u00a0mg\/L, 1.665\u00a0mg\/L, 1.69\u00a0mg\/L and 1.985\u00a0mg\/L, respectively, and the calculated age-adjusted coefficient was 0.02\u00a0mg\/L. With this new coefficient applied, the specificity was 61%, clearly higher than those for conventional threshold (0.5\u00a0mg\/L, 37%) or previously established age-adjusted D-dimer threshold (age\u2009\u00d7\u20090.01\u00a0mg\/L, 22%). In contrast, the sensitivity was lower than that (59% vs 85% or 77%) when D-dimer threshold of 0.5\u00a0mg\/L or age-adjusted cutoff value (age\u2009\u00d7\u20090.01\u00a0mg\/L) was used. The other indexes as PPV (15%, 11% and 12%) and NPV (93%, 93% and 94%) were comparable when three different D-dimer thresholds were applied.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We developed a new age-adjusted D-dimer cutoff value (age\u2009\u00d7\u20090.02\u00a0mg\/L) for a specified high-risk population of patients aged 65\u00a0years or older with hip fractures, and demonstrated the improved utility of the D-dimer test for exclusion of DVT.
