Mycoplasma pneumoniae induced coagulopathy and thrombosis in children / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection can cause coagulation dysfunction and thrombosis, involving organ including deep vein, lung and brain, etc.Central venous catheterization is the most important risk factor for deep venous thrombosis.Lung consolidation more than 2/3 is a high risk of pulmonary embolismin mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.Elevated blood D-dimer over 5 mg/L is an independent risk factor for predicting thrombus.Color Doppler ultrasound and CT angiography(CTA) are the main methods to determine thrombosis.Deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism should be treated with individualized anticoagulant and thrombolytic therapy.
