  • Title: [Experimental studies on disseminated intravascular coagulation (author's transl)].
    Author: Meerbach W, Rüdiger KD, Wöckel W.
    Journal: Exp Pathol (Jena); 1977; 13(1):58-67. PubMed ID: 849773.
    Abstract:
    Generalized disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was produced in rats by thrombin infusion (550 NIH U thrombin/kg/h). Changes in the clotting system and morphological alterations were studied with consideration to early lesions. Furthermore, the influence of the antifibrinolytic agent Pamba and the fibrinolytic enzyme ocrase on DIC are studied. Microthrombi and degenerative alterations are increased in parenchymatous organs after thrombin infusion with Pamba is applied, they are decreased when ocrase is given. Alterations are most prominent in the lungs revealing the appearance of a "shock lung". Semiquantitative morphological examinations of lung, liver, kidney and adrenal glands were performed by counting microthrombi. There are marked differences between the test groups.
