Clinical Trial Summary

Sepsis results in activation of the coagulation system, which is commonly described as disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The DIC score, which is commonly used to define this syndrome, does not allow to delineate between hypercoagulation and hypocoagulation. The aim of this prospective observational study is to evaluate data from automated rotational thromboelastometry and compare These with the DIC score regarding intensive care unit outcome.


Clinical Trial Description

Sepsis results in an intensive interaction between Inflammation and the coagulation system. The activation of the coagulation system leads to consumption of procoagulatory as well as anticoagulatory proteins and platelets. This process may induce microcirculatory thrombosis as well as hemorrhagic diathesis, which is commonly described as disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) recommends the use of the DIC score to describe this syndrome. A score of at least 5 points is defined as an overt DIC. However, the DIC score does not allow to differentiate between a hypercoagulation and hypocoagulation states and whether there could be a difference regarding outcome between the two states. In this prospective observational study, patients admitted to a medical intensive care unit will be included. The DIC score as well as rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) will be evaluated within the first 24 hours after the diagnosis of sepsis as well as on day 3 and 5. ;
