Step-by-step of Thrombocytopenia in Sepsis
• 1st point of view:
• Platelet count reduction caused by consumption mechanisms of pathogen,
pathogen product-mediated activation, induction of apoptosis, lysis and
increased phagocytic clearance leads to thrombocytopenia
• Following mechanisms:
• Coagulopathy, DIC, platelet sequestration by leukocytes and by inflammatory
vascular beds stressed mechanisms of thrombocytopenia
