Abstract:
Objective To study the changes of coagulation and fibrinolysis in rabbit model of non-overt disseminated intravascular coagulation induced by low-dose endotoxin and therapeutic effects of anticoagulation by heparin.Methods Twelve male rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups,one receiving endotoxin intravenously(10 ?g/kg,n=6),one receiving endotoxin intravenously and 100 U/kg Heparin simultaneously(n=6).The blood sample obtained before experiment was used as control.Coagulation parameters including prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(aPTT),thrombin time(TT),fibrinogen concentration,D-dimers,thrombelastography(TEG)were measured during 6 h after endotoxin induction.Tissue specimens of lungs and kidneys were examined.Results Parameters of coagulation deteriorated significantly in the endotoxin-induced rabbits,but was not altered in heparin-treated rabbits.TEG monitoring in the endotoxin-induced rabbits reflected consumption of clot factors and platelet dysfunction,and hypocoagulation status in heparin-treated rabbits.In endotoxin-induced group,fibrin deposition was found in lungs and kidneys.Conclusion Non-overt disseminated intravascular coagulation induced by low-dose endotoxin in rabbits is improved by heparin.
