Diffuse intravascular coagulation

Diffuse intravascular coagulation (abbreviated as DIC) is not a separate disease, but a complex pathological process and clinical syndrome caused by multiple causes. It is characterized by extensive platelet aggregation and fibrin deposition in the microcirculation, leading to diffuse microthrombosis, secondary clotting factor and large consumption of platelets, and hyperfibrinolysis, which causes microcirculation disorders, bleeding, hemolysis And other serious clinical manifestations. The condition of acute diffuse intravascular coagulation progresses rapidly, and if not treated in time, it is often life-threatening.
