How to Assess Fibrinogen Levels and Fibrin Clot Properties in Clinical Practice?

abstract：:Current concepts of the cause, pathophysiologic mechanisms, diagnosis, and management of acute and chronic DIC have been discussed. Considerable attention has been devoted to interrelationships that have remained confusing. Only by clearly understanding these pathophysiologic interrelationships can the clinician and l...
