  • Title: [The clinical significance of deficiency coagulopathy in relationship to consumption coagulopathy (authors' transl)].
    Author: Beller FK, Wagner H, Graubner F.
    Journal: Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd; 1976 Feb; 36(2):140-5. PubMed ID: 1254158.
    Abstract:
    A deficiency coagulopathy may lead to a coagulation defect in the presence of massive blood loss which is characterized by a dilution of the coagulation factors especially a dilution of the plasma fibrinogen and the platelets and a dilution of their function. Hemorrhages which are triggered by a coagulation defect (consumption coagulopathy) may be aggravated by the additional loss of coagulation factors. The combination of a coagulation coagulopathy with a deficiency coagulopathy results in a bad prognosis. A case of deficiency coagulopathy and a case of consumption coagulopathy with additional deficiency coagulopathy are reported, the clinical importance and the management of these conditions are discussed.
