The diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) based on composite scoring systems using routinely available coagulation tests has been greatly facilitated. Such scoring instruments not only adequately assess the presence of DIC but also have strong prognostic power for morbidity and mortality. In this issue of Critical Care, Gando and colleagues report on the prospective validation of the Japanese Association of Acute Medicine score for DIC in patients with severe sepsis.
基于常规凝血检测的综合评分系统对弥散性血管内凝血(DIC)的诊断有了很大进展。此类评分工具不仅能充分评估DIC的存在,还对发病率和死亡率具有很强的预后预测能力。在本期《重症监护》中,甘多及其同事报告了日本急性医学协会DIC评分在严重脓毒症患者中的前瞻性验证情况。
