[Blood coagulation disorders in infants with infectious gastroenteritis].

The study included 28 infants with infectious gastroenteritis who evolved with disturbances of coagulation and in whom laboratory tests were practiced by micromethods through capillary puncture. The most frequently seen abnormality was a combination of vitamin K dependent factors deficiency with thrombocytopenia. Another observation in our study is that hypofibrinogenemia in infants with infectious gastroenteritis is not always secondary to disseminated intravascular coagulation. A decrease in fibrinogen in these cases is explained by a lack in synthesis of this factor in infants with malnutrition since out of 16 malnourished infants, 75% evolved with hypofibrinogenemia, while eutrophic infants evolved with normal fibrinogen. The disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome was seen more frequently in patients with infectious gastroenteritis complicated with septicemia and shock, 57% of the patients did not show manifestations of bleeding nor of thrombosis which justifies in these cases a systematic investigation of the coagulation mechanism.

[Blood coagulation disorders in polytraumatized patients].

The lapse of coagulation disorders in polytraumatized patients is regarded as a substantial part of complications in the course of traumatic-hemorrhagic shock. In 71 polytraumatized patients blood-clotting tests were performed and showed that changes may already occur at a very early stage of the shock. The extent of these changes is closely related to the degree of the injury. It could be demonstrated that prompt shock-treatment and maintenance of adequate circulation as well as administration of low doses of heparin are important for spontaneous recompensation of the hemostatic defect.

Cancer in persons with inherited blood coagulation disorders.

In order to assess the influence of an inherited blood coagulation disorder in individuals who developed cancer, a mail survey of physicians who care for individuals with a bleeding diathesis was evaluated. Sixty-one individuals in an estimated population of 10,500 with both disorders were identified. An apparent increase in the incidence of cancer in the genitourinary and musculoskeletal systems was noted. However, in the largest group ( hemophilia) the primary site of cancer was similar to an age and sex matched population. There did not appear to be a change in the onset of metastatic disease in these individuals, as compared to an individual with cancer who did not have an inherited blood coagulation disorder.

[Dynamics of blood coagulation disorders in traumatic-hemorrhagic shock].

Blood clotting tests in 55 polytraumatized patients showed that a lapse in the hemostatic potential may already occur at a very early stage of the traumatic-hemorrhagic shock. The extent of these changes which are complex in their pathogenesis, is closely related to the degree of injury. Coagulation-analysis control of the development shows clearly that shock treatment and maintenance of adequate circulation, starting at the earliest possible moment at the scene of the accident, are important for spontaneous recompensation of the hemostatic defect.

[Influence of cytostatic combination therapy with vincristine sulphate and iphosphamide on blood coagulation].

Disorders of blood coagulation were investigated before and during a cytostatic combination therapy with vincristine sulphate and iphosphamide (Asta Z 4942) in 12 patients with malignant tumours or haemoblastoses. Thromboplastin time, partial thromboplastin time, thrombin time, heat-dependent fibrin, clot retraction, and clotting factors II, V, VIII, IX, X, and the platelet count were determined. A change in the plasmatic coagulation system attributable to the combination therapy could not be demonstrated in any patient. The influence of the cytostatic combination on the platelet-dependent haemostasis was small; a decrease in platelet count could be observed in only one patient, in whom an additional causative damage to thrombopoiesis due to the underlying disease could be assumed. Regardless of the cytostatic therapy there were indications of a hypercoagulability in 10 patients. This explains the increased susceptibility of such patients for thromboses or consumption coagulopathy.
