Popis: The study aims to evaluate the prognosis and risk factors of sepsis-associated thrombocytopenia (SAT) among patients with coagulopathy, and to provide evidence of the relationship between adverse outcomes and potential risks. Patients with sepsis-associated coagulopathy were included in the study from January 2014 to December 2022. The primary outcome was sepsis-associated thrombocytopenia (platelet count less than 100 *10 9 /L), which was evaluated by logistic regression models adjusted for demographic characteristics and comorbidities. Among patients in the SAT group, 54% developed severe SAT, while 16% of these patients recovered from thrombocytopenia. The in-hospital mortality rate was significantly higher in the SAT group compared to the non-SAT group (31% in SAT group vs 23.9% in non-SAT group, p = 0.029). Even after adjusting for age, gender, Charlson comorbidity, white blood cell, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score, the differences in mortality rate persisted (Odds Ratio 0.72, [95% Confidence Interval 0.52–0.92]). Correlation analyses revealed that prothrombin time (r = 0.08, p = 0.50), international normalized ratio (r = 0.08, p = 0.42), prothrombin activity (r = −0.06, p > 0.999), D-dimer (r = −0.02, p > 0.999), and inflammatory parameters such as C-reactive protein (r = −0.11, p = 0.37) were not significantly correlated with platelet counts. According to subgroup analyses, patients with lung infection complicated by SAT had slightly higher mortality (OR 0.66, [95% CI, 0.46 to 0.94]). Sepsis-associated coagulopathy indicates a subset of critical ill patients, with those experiencing thrombocytopenia at greater risk for in-hospital death compared to those without it.
