[Blood coagulation tests in children with cyanotic heart defects]. 1975

H Lenk, and G Weissbach, and K Bock, and M Domula

In 57 children with congenital cyanotic heart disease coagulation analyses were performed before operation. The patients with low haematocrit only sometimes exhibited defects of low degree. In patients with haematocrit values of more than 60% were increasingly found complex coagulation disturbances. Many correlations could be proved between the coagulation parameters. Thrombocytopenia, plasmatic defects and hyperfibrinolysis were parallel. The cause of the changes is to be seen in chronic disseminated intravasal coagulation processes. The results of investigations presented confirm the necessity of preoperative coagulation analyses especially in patients with high haematocrit values. Larger disturbances of coagulation may influence the decision between a palliative intervention or immediate causal operation.

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.

D006400 Hematocrit The volume of packed RED BLOOD CELLS in a blood specimen. The volume is measured by centrifugation in a tube with graduated markings, or with automated blood cell counters. It is an indicator of erythrocyte status in disease. For example, ANEMIA shows a low value; POLYCYTHEMIA, a high value.
