(1,2,6) Moreover, many cases of SHL are related to
coagulopathy. Congenital abnormalities, such as hemophilia or vitamin K deficiency; poor general conditions, such as hypotension or sepsis and antiplatelet drugs like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can cause
coagulopathy.
Coagulopathy in critically ill patients: part 1: platelet disorders.
There are several contraindications of ESWL treatment including pregnancy, an untreated urinary tract infection/urosepsis, decompensated
coagulopathy, uncontrolled arrhythmia, and an abdominal aortic aneurysm >4.0 cm.[2]
The patient required large volumes of blood products for resuscitation despite lack of laboratory evidence of
coagulopathy.
Health care providers should consider vitamin K-dependent
coagulopathy in patients with unexplained bleeding and reported or suspected synthetic cannabinoid use.
The baseline characteristics collected for both groups included age, gender, weight, height, serum creatinine, and past medical history of stroke and/or
coagulopathy. Information on oral anticoagulation was also collected, including medication, indication, dose, dosing regimen, and appropriateness assessed based on the patient's age, indication, and renal function.
Clinical condition of the patient should be looked into and in case of
coagulopathy, one can go ahead and deliver the baby adopting an aggressive approach.
Fresh Frozen Plasma is frequently transfused to patients with mild to moderate elevations in Prothrombin Time (PT) under the twin assumptions that these tests imply a
coagulopathy and that FFP transfusion will correct the
coagulopathy.
We present herein a case of HLH in a premature infant presenting with disseminated intravascular
coagulopathy (DIC) and liver failure.
As shown in Table 3 thrombocytopenia (platelets < 50 billion/L) or
coagulopathy, active hemorrhage and end stage liver disease (INR > 1.5) were the frequently observed absolute contraindications that potentially prevent patients to receive thromboprophylaxis.
After the
coagulopathy improved and the patient stabilized, lumbar puncture was performed with administration of intrathecal chemotherapy.
