Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology

Abstract

Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy is a process in which aberrant activation of the clotting mechanism results in defective coagulation. Although infrequently encountered during pregnancy, disseminated intravascular coagulopathy is associated with several clinical situations unique to obstetrics. Management consists of treating the underlying cause, restoring and maintaining the circulating blood volume, and replacing deficient clotting factors as indicated.
