Popis: | SummaryBackground: Previously we observed in some but not all septic patients a low plasma concentration of plasminogen. Objectives: To investigate prospectively whether plasma levels of plasminogen or the ratio of plasminogen to alpha-2-antiplasmin have a prognostic value for survival from sepsis and to study the variation of other hemostatic parameters during septicemia. Patients: The study population consisted of 45 consecutive patients with septicemia, 15 non-septic patients from the same intensive care unit and 30 healthy volunteers. Measurements and Main Results: Plasminogen concentrations were significantly lower (p |
