HaemostasisBalance versus imbalance Healthy Bleeding tendency Thrombophilia
HaemostasisThrombophilia versus bleeding • Bleeding tendency • DIC • Consumption • Hyperfibrinolyse • Colloids • Anaemia • Hypotermia • Thrombophilia • DIC • Tissue factor induced activation • Bedrest • Cancer • Brain damage
Coagulopathy of sepsisInflammation and coagulation • Close relation between inflammtory response and coagulation activation • Monocytes and microparticles express tissue factor • LPS • Activates FXII • Interaction with endothelial cells – Tissue factor • Activates platelets • Result: Imbalance between intravascular fibrin formation and its removal
Coagulopathy of sepsisActivation Tissue factor-FVIIa Thrombin Fibrin Fibrinogen Fibrinogen split products
Coagulopathy of sepsisRegulatory mechanism of activation • Antithrombin, • The protein C system, • Tissue factor pathway inhibitor
Coagulopathy of sepsisSystemic anticoagulation Activated Protein C Thrombomodulin • TFPI • Plasma/endothelial cells Tissue factor-FVIIa Thrombin Fibrin • Antithrombin – TAT • Rapid clearance of TAT • Antithrombin negative acute phase protein
Dissemineret intravascular coagulationDefinition • Intravascular activation and imbalance of inhibition and fibrinolysis • Microthrombosis • Brain (delirium/coma) • Skin (necrosis) • Kidney (oliguri/renal failure) • Lungs (ARDS) • Multi Organ Dysfunction Syndrome • Bleeding
Dissemineret intravascular coagulationDiagnose • Clinical diagnose • Biochemistry: • Activation: • Platelets low/decreasing • FII, VII and FX low • Fibrinogen low/decreasing (acute phase) • Fibrinolysis: • D-dimer high • Consumption of inhibitors: • Antithrombin low • Protein C normal • TAT high
DIC score IOvert DIC • Does the patient have an underlying disorder known to be associated with overt DIC, YES? Platelet count (10*9/l): (>100 = 0; 50-100 = 1;<50 = 2) Fibrin-related marker: (No increase = 0; Moderate increase = 2; Strong increase = 3) Prolonged prothrombin time: (<3 s = 0; 3-6 s = 1; >6 s = 2) Fibrinogen: (>1.0 g/l = 0; <1.0 g/l: 1) • If the sum is ≥5, the patient status is compatible with overt DIC.

Heparin induced thrombocytopenia • Beware: • Isolated Thrombocytopenia without other affection • Thrombosis during heparing treatment • Incidens: • UFH; 0.5-5% • LMH; 0,05-0,5% • Patogenesis: • Antibody formation against platelets (activation) + tissue factor release from monocytes • 5-10 days after institution of treatment
Heparin induced thrombocytopenia • Diagnose: • Isolatedthrombocytopenia • HIT antibodydetection (2-5 days) • HIT scoring system • Treatmens: • Stop heparintreatment • Thrombin inhibitor • Argatroban (Novastan) Christoffersen C., Ugeskr Læger 2009;171(8):612

Antithrombin • Small clinical trials: • improvement of a DIC score • shortening of the duration of DIC • improvement in organ function • Randomized, controlled clinical trial, 2314 patients with severe sepsis (Kybersept trial9 • Identical mortality between treatment with antithrombin for 4 days versus placebo • Trend; Decreased mortality in subgroup of patients who did not receive heparin M Levi M, Schouten M, van der Poll T. Semin Thromb Hemost. 2008 Nov;34(8):742-6. Review.
Tissue factor pathway inhibitor • TFPI has been shown to attenuate IL-6 and IL-8 release in an animal model • A large RCT failed to show a reduced mortality in patients with severe sepsis Levi M Crit Care. 2005;9(6):624-5.
Activated Protein CXigris • Recombinant protein • Indication: • Severe sepsis • MODS • Evidens: • 28 day mortality APC vs. Placebo • Mortality 24,7% (APC) vs. 30,8% (Placebo) E Tønnesen Ugeskr Læger 2004;166(11):1002 Bernard GR, Vincent JL, Laterre PF et al. N Engl J Med 2001;344:699-709.
Activated Protein CXigris • Drug approval based on a single study • Side effects: • Serious bleeding events APC (3.5%) vs. placebo (2.0%), p=0.06 • First part of study • 720 patients inrolled – no effect of APC treatment • Monitorering / duration of treatment • Mode of action Eichacker PQ.

Dissemineret intravascular coagulationTreatment • Treat underlying disease • Fresh frozen plasma • Platelets pool – only thrombocytopenia induced bleeding • Fibrinogen concentrate – only during massive bleeding and afibrinogenaemia • Xigris • Consult: Local coagulation lab.
Hyperfibrinolysis • Increased breakdown of the clot formed • Induced by • Release of fibrinolytic agents from damaged endothelial cells • Hypoperfusion • Massive bleeding • Obstetric • Urology • Severe trauma (ISS <25)
Hyperfibrinolysis • Treatment; tranexamic acid 15 mg/kg • Remember to substitute consumptioned fibrinogen • CRASH II study • 20,000 trauma patients • Ongoeing bleeding or significant risk for bleeding • RCT; tranexamic acid or placebo • End-points; Death and transfusion requirements Brohi K et al J Trauma. 2008 May;64(5):1211-7; WWW.CRASH2.LSHTM.AC.UK
