Abstract
In 2017 a new criteria for sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC) were issued following the revised sepsis definition in 2016. They aimed to the earliest detection of the sepsis-specific thrombotic phenotype of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in order to improve outcomes with early anticoagulant treatment in critically ill patients with sepsis. The following validation of SIC score demonstrated higher forecast value of that and revealed higher correlation with mortality compared to DIC score by the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH). In the future the ISTH plans to offer a simplified two-step scoring system for early DIC syndrome revealing in which SIC scale is as the first step, and the next step is the assessing of overt-DIC in patients who meet the criteria of SIC. The main goal of that should become the opportunity of timely therapeutic effects to the hemocoagulation in order to improve the treatment effectiveness of a sepsis.
