Abstract:
On 100 liver cirrhosis patients treated in the Hospital 198 (32 with gastrointestinal hemorrhage and 68 without) prothrombine level, fibrinogen and thrombocyte level are related to the complications of gastrointestinal hemorrhage due to a rupture of esophageal verous varicosis in patient of cirrhosis. The amount of hemorrhagic group with a decrease of 80% of prothrombine occupies 71.8%, while in the group without hemorrhage only 41.4%. In hemorrhagic group, fibrinogen level more decrease than the group without hemorrhage (40.6% vs 30.8%) and the number of thrombocyte in hemorrhagic group is lower. The severity of gastrointestinal hemorrhage is related proportionally with the decrease of prothrombine level, fibrinogene level and thrombocyte number
