Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation [PDF]

Medical Clinics of North America, 1972
The diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was initially based on the detection of microthrombi. Current diagnosis involves laboratory assessment of hemostatic abnormalities although additional studies may often be necessary. DIC is characterized by hypercoagulability and hyperfibrinolysis and is caused by high offense factors or low
