Session Purpose:

This webinar aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of medical laboratory professionals in diagnosing and managing Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC), a complex and life-threatening coagulopathy. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the laboratory tests critical to diagnosing DIC, as well as the clinical strategies required for effective management.

Objectives:

  1. Understand DIC Pathophysiology: To provide an overview of the underlying mechanisms and causes of Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation, including common conditions associated with DIC.
  2. Identify Key Diagnostic Markers: To examine specific laboratory markers such as D-dimer, fibrinogen levels, platelet count, PT, aPTT,  and others essential in diagnosing and monitoring DIC.
  3. Interpret Diagnostic Test Results: To develop skills in interpreting coagulation profiles and identifying patterns that indicate DIC progression or resolution.
  4. Explore Management Strategies: To discuss therapeutic options and management strategies for patients with DIC, including transfusion protocols and supportive care, and the role of the laboratory in monitoring treatment efficacy.
