ISTH DIC score pattern: total 4 (platelets 1, PT 1, fibrin markers 2, fibrinogen 0)

Interpretatie

The current ISTH score pattern is compatible with possible or evolving disseminated intravascular coagulation, but it is not by itself definitive for overt DIC.

Differentiële suggesties

• Compatible with early or evolving disseminated intravascular coagulation.
• Suggestive of non-specific systemic coagulopathy from infection, inflammation, liver dysfunction, or treatment effect depending on the clinical setting.

Beperkingen

• Intermediate ISTH scores require trend review; a single measurement should not be treated as a final diagnosis.
• Component abnormalities may be influenced by transfusion, anticoagulant therapy, or concurrent organ dysfunction.

Aanbevolen vervolgstappen

• Repeat the score with interval laboratory testing to assess whether the pattern is progressing or resolving.
• Review platelets, PT, fibrinogen, fibrin markers, and the underlying trigger together before escalating interpretation.
