BACKGROUND:
The criteria set by the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) with the criteria of the Korean Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis (KSTH) for the diagnosis of DIC was compared to evaluate the agreement between two criteria and the characteristics of each criteria.METHODS:
Two hundred ninety-six adult patients with sepsis (57 pneumonia, 75 hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal infection, 25 urinary tract infection, 51 infection associated with malignant diseases and 84 other causes) were studied. The rate of agreement in the diagnosis of DIC by the two diagnostic systems was analyzed. Characteristics of each criteria was also analyzed by the comparison of laboratory criteria.RESULTS:
The kappa coefficient and concordance rate, agreement parameters in the diagnosis of DIC by the two diagnostic systems was 0.78 and 89.5%, respectively. The median platelet count was lower and FDP level was higher in the patients diagnosed by ISTH criteria than in patients diagnosed by KSTH criteria.CONCLUSION:
The agreement between ISTH and KSTH criteria was significantly high.
