Abstract

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is an acquired syndrome characterized by microvascular thrombosis resulting from systemic activation of coagulation, and it should be diagnosed and treated as early as possible. No single test is sufficiently accurate to establish or rule out a diagnosis of DIC. Therefore, diagnostic scoring uses a combination of several laboratory tests. Three diagnostic scoring systems are now available and validated. Because it is not easy to assess the superiority or inferiority of these scoring systems, it may be better to select the scoring system depending on the need for an early or affirmative diagnosis of DIC.
