Predictive Value of Scoring System in Neonates with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation

October 2, 2024 updated by: Mohamed Mostafa Bakr Sleem, Assiut University
The aims of this study were to investigate underlying diseases associated with neonatal DIC diagnosed on the first 28 days of life, and whether DIC score could predict mortality in neonates.

Detailed Description

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a syndrome caused by the activation of blood coagulation, in which systemic intravascular micro thromboses result in multiple organ failure and severe bleeding due to consumption of platelets and coagulation factors [1]. Compared with adults, neonates have an immature coagulation-fibrinolysis system and are prone to complications that cause DIC, such as hypoxia, acidosis, and infection [2]. Additionally, preterm infants have a lower hemostatic profile than term infants, which increases their risk of DIC [3]. However, gold standard interventions and treatments for DIC are lacking in neonatal medicine, Veldman et al. suggested that DIC in neonates is caused by prenatal risk factors such as placental abruption (PA), pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH), and neonatal factors such as sepsis, asphyxia, and interventricular hemorrhage (IVH), along with postnatal factors, such as necrotizing enterocolitis, gastrointestinal perforation, and infection [4]. The Japan Society of Obstetrical, Gynecological & Neonatal Hematology (JSOGNH) revised its diagnostic guidelines for neonatal DIC in 2016 and proposed a DIC scoring system [5]. Anticoagulant therapy, such as antithrombin administration and fresh frozen plasma (FFP), has been used to treat neonatal DIC [6]. Since 2008, recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin (rTM) has emerged as a novel anticoagulant for DIC in Japan [7]. Reversal of the underlying condition is paramount in achieving treatment success in the newborn with DIC. Strategies such as early antibiotic therapy and identification and control of the source of disease in cases of necrotizing enterocolitis, sepsis, and septic shock should always precede interventions directed at normalizing the coagulation system [8]. reports are lacking about diseases associated with neonatal DIC and whether anything predicts mortality in this context. We discuss the clinical andlaboratory criteria using (JSOGNH) scoring system to see if DIC score could predict mortality in neonates.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Study Start (Estimated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
