Excerpt

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) represents a serious condition in which systemic and persistent coagulation activation occurs in the presence of an underlying pathology, resulting in the formation of microthrombi in microvessels. Activation of fibrinolysis is observed alongside coagulation, but the degree of fibrinolytic activation varies considerably depending on the underlying diseases. As DIC progresses, hemostatic factors such as platelets and coagulation factors decrease, leading to the pathophysiology of consumption coagulopathy [1]. …
