amazing stuff
Thanks for the post. I have some disagreement with the recommendation to give FFP for high INR or PTT in a non-bleeding DIC patient.. This will predispose many patients to thrombosis and volume overload among other things. I recently read with interest Josh Farkas’ DIC post and he brings up the concept that many DIC patients are procoagulable, especially if they have elevated fibrinogen. How do you reconcile this with Dr. DeLoughery’s FFP recommendation?
