The DIC Syndrome should be considered a disorder where there is persistent activation of intravacular blood coagulation. Recognized by pathologists and defined by criteria assoiated with individuals who made it to the autopsy table, clinicians should attempt to identify early signs of this disorder and take steps to suppress intravacular coagulation. Persistent activation of intravascular clotting can lead to thrombosis alone, or bleeding alone or in combination with thrombosis. What triggers DIC ? Why do patients bleed from DIC ?
