Quantitative Evaluation of Coagulability in Obstetric DIC Using TEG6s for New Japanese Diagnostic Criteria of Obstetrical Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation [PDF]

open access: yesJ Obstet Gynaecol Res
ABSTRACT Obstetric disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) onset is indicated by a bleeding tendency; however, its quantitative evaluation is difficult. Here, we quantitatively evaluated coagulability using the blood viscoelasticity test, TEG6s, for determining the threshold at which bleeding tendency occurs based on coagulation function test ...
