Overview

There are a variety of causes of DIC[1], all usually causing the release of chemicals into the blood that instigates the coagulation.

Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.

Disseminated intravascular coagulation in itself is a life-threatening condition and must be treated as such irrespective of the cause.
