Abstract

Introduction: Venous thromboembolic disease and arterial thrombosis are known causes of death in hospital, particularly among postoperative, immobilized and septic medical patients. Coagulopathy plays a key role through the mechanism of crosstalk between inflammation and coagulation as a result of systemic endothelial injury. Case: We report manifestations of sepsis-induced coagulopathy in a 64-year-old woman who was treated at the Intensive Care Unit of RSUD Dr. Moewardi with peripheral arterial disease. The patient was treated for 20 days in the intensive care unit with multidisciplinary approach. The patient's clinical outcome was good and planned for follow-up during outpatient care. Discussion: Thrombosis and inflammation are separate but strongly related physiological processes. Physiologically, inflammation-dependent activation of the coagulation system is part of the host response to pathogens aimed at limiting their systemic spread in the bloodstream. Conclusion: This response is achieved through interactions between innate immune cells and platelets called immunothrombosis.
