Coagulopathy, specifically disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), is a serious condition where blood clots form throughout the body's blood vessels, leading to organ damage. Simultaneously, clotting factors are depleted, causing bleeding. Common causes include severe trauma, sepsis, and obstetric complications. It requires immediate medical intervention to prevent organ failure.
coagulopathy — A disorder affecting blood's ability to clot, characterized by either excessive clotting or bleeding, often involving abnormal function of clotting factors
thrombophilia — A condition where blood has increased tendency to form clots, often due to genetic or acquired factors that affect blood coagulation
hemophilia — A genetic disorder that impairs the body's ability to form blood clots, leading to excessive bleeding and slow healing
vasculitis — Inflammation of blood vessels that can cause vessel walls to thicken, narrow, or weaken, potentially affecting blood flow
embolism — A blockage in a blood vessel caused by a blood clot or other material that has traveled from elsewhere in the body through the bloodstream
