Disseminated Intravascular
Coagulation (DIC)
▪ Disseminated intravascular coagulation is
characterized by:
▪ systemic activation of blood coagulation
▪ which results in generation and deposition of fibrin
▪ leading to microvascular thrombi in various organs
▪ contributing to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome
(MODS)
▪ >> microtrombi hyperfibrinolysis D-dimer >>
