Advance in the Management of Sepsis-Induced Coagulopathy and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation

TL;DR: The ISTH DIC Scientific Standardization Committee has proposed a new category termed “sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC)” to facilitate earlier diagnosis of DIC and potentially more rapid interventions in these critically ill patients.

Idiopathic Fatty Liver of Pregnancy: Findings in Ten Cases

TL;DR: Ten cases of fatty liver of pregnancy reported from a large metropolitan medical center for the period 1972 to 1982 yielded new data concerning presenting signs and symptoms, laboratory features including serial clotting screens documenting disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), obstetric and perinatal information as well as maternal follow-up.

Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation

TL;DR: Bleeding may be the presenting symptom in a patient with disseminated intravascular coagulation, a factor that can complicate decisions about treatment, and the use and subsequent depletion of platelets and coagulating proteins resulting from the ongoing coagulations may induce severe bleeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Towards definition, clinical and laboratory criteria, and a scoring system for disseminated intravascular coagulation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a study on the effects of haematology drugs on the development of heart disease in patients with hemophilia and showed that they are useful in the treatment of heart failure.
Journal Article

Towards Definition, Clinical and Laboratory Criteria, and a Scoring System for Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation* On behalf of the Scientific Subcommittee on Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC) of the ISTH

TL;DR: This poster presents a poster presented at the European Hemophilia and Vascular Biology Conference in Brussels, Belgium, which aims to present a probabilistic picture of the immune system’s response to blood clotting disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of disseminated intravascular coagulation

TL;DR: Transfusion of platelets or plasma (components) in patients with DIC should not primarily be based on laboratory results and should in general be reserved for patients who present with bleeding, but should be considered in those with active bleeding and in those requiring an invasive procedure.

Disseminated intravascular coagulation

TL;DR: Heparin, low molecular weight heparin, danaparoid, protease inhibitors for coagulation factors and antithrombin III are the choices for DIC, but since the selection of the drugs is different depending on the basal disease, it is important to understand the pathophysiology of the individual situation.
