Coagulopathy and sepsis: Pathophysiology, clinical manifestations and treatment
Sepsis is a complex syndrome with a high incidence, increasing by 8.7% annually over the last 20 years. Coagulopathy is a leading factor associated with mortality in patients with sepsis and range from slight thrombocytopenia to fatal disorders, such as disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Platelet reactivity increases during sepsis but prospective trials of antiplatelet therapy during sepsis have been disappointing. Thrombocytopenia is a known predictor of worse prognosis during sepsis. The mechanisms underlying thrombocytopenia in sepsis have yet to be fully understood but likely involves decreased platelet production, platelet sequestration and increased consumption. DIC is an acquired thrombohemorrhagic syndrome, resulting in intravascular fibrin formation, microangiopathic thrombosis, and subsequent depletion of coagulation factors and platelets. DIC can be resolved with treatment of the underlying disorder, which is considered the cornerstone in the management of this syndrome. This review presents the current knowledge on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of sepsis-associated coagulopathies.
