Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation
• Laboratory manifestations
– Prolonged prothrombin time (PT)
– Prolonged Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT)
– Thrombocytopenia.
– Increased fibrin formation
• Stimulates compensatory process of secondary
fibrinolysis,
• Plasminogen activators generate plasmin to digest
fibrin (and fibrinogen) into fibrin(ogen) degradation
products (FDPs).
– FDPs are potent circulating anticoagulants that
contribute further to the bleeding manifestations of
DIC.

Chronic DIC:
• Treatment
– Identify underlying cause and treat
– All other therapies are temporizing
