Studies in experimental animals on disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). 1975

F Markwardt, and G Nowak, and W Meerbach, and K D Rüdiger

Changes in the clotting system, as well as morphological and functional alterations corresponding to that of the pathologic phenomenon of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) or consumption coagulopathy, were produced by thrombin infusion (550 NIH U X kg-1 X h-1) in rats and simultaneous inhibition of fibrinolysis by PAMBA (100 mg/kg). Changes in the fibrinogen level and platelet count as well as the appearances of fibrin monomers and the formation of microthrombi in several organs were evaluated. Simultaneously, the function of the respiratory system was investigated by continuous measurement of oxygen consumption as well as elasticity and water content of the lung. From the time course of the alterations in the several parameters, conclusions can be drawn for the pathogenesis and the possible therapeutic influence on DIC.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries

D008176 Lung Volume Measurements Measurement of the amount of air that the lungs may contain at various points in the respiratory cycle. Lung Capacities,Lung Volumes,Capacity, Lung,Lung Capacity,Lung Volume,Lung Volume Measurement,Measurement, Lung Volume,Volume, Lung
D008297 Male Males
D011654 Pulmonary Edema Excessive accumulation of extravascular fluid in the lung, an indication of a serious underlying disease or disorder. Pulmonary edema prevents efficient PULMONARY GAS EXCHANGE in the PULMONARY ALVEOLI, and can be life-threatening. Wet Lung,Edema, Pulmonary,Edemas, Pulmonary,Pulmonary Edemas,Lung, Wet,Lungs, Wet,Wet Lungs
D012119 Respiration The act of breathing with the LUNGS, consisting of INHALATION, or the taking into the lungs of the ambient air, and of EXHALATION, or the expelling of the modified air which contains more CARBON DIOXIDE than the air taken in (Blakiston's Gould Medical Dictionary, 4th ed.). This does not include tissue respiration ( Breathing
D001772 Blood Cell Count The number of LEUKOCYTES and ERYTHROCYTES per unit volume in a sample of venous BLOOD. A complete blood count (CBC) also includes measurement of the HEMOGLOBIN; HEMATOCRIT; and ERYTHROCYTE INDICES.

D004211 Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation A disorder characterized by procoagulant substances entering the general circulation causing a systemic thrombotic process. The activation of the clotting mechanism may arise from any of a number of disorders. A majority of the patients manifest skin lesions, sometimes leading to PURPURA FULMINANS.
