title: [Fibrinolysis system in patients with sepsis in state of myelotoxic agranulocytosis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Hemostasis disorders are the part of multiple organ failure (mOF) in sepsis. This work objective is to evaluate the system parameters in septic patients.
  
  
  METHODS
  55 oncohaematological patients were included in study: 45 with sepsis and 10 patients in control group (no signs of infection). Septic patients were subdivided into septic patients without multiple organ failure, patient with multiple organ failure and patients with septic shock. The C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonine (pCT), interleukine-6 (IL-6) serum concentration and fibrinolysis parameters were measured Patients were examined daily during first 5 days, later once a week during 28 days, control group was examined one time.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Levels of CRP IL-6 and PCT were raised since 1st day. PCT and IL-6 concentrations were higher in sepsis and MOF group and septic shock group, than in sepsis without MOF group. CRP was raised in all patients. PCT went to normal at 7th day, CRP and IL-6 have started to decrease after 7th day, but both were higher than in control group. T-PA and plasmin inhibitors were comparable to control group and haven't changed significantly. Septic shock patients and patients with MOF have shown a decrease of plasminogen activity. Patients without MOF have shown an initially decreased plasminogen activity, but after 2 days it was similar to control group. PAI-I activity was increased only in septic shock and MOF groups in first days, and was similar to control group in cases of no MOF. Exended XIIa-dependent fibrinolysis time in average was present in all septic patients since 1st day, and extended twice in MOF and septic shock groups. Clot lysis time tended to decrease starting from 8th day, but it was longer than in control group till 28th day. A raised D-dimer concentration compared to control group was present in 75% of patients, but no difference was found among subgroups. A raised D-dimer serum concentration was relevant for prognosis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The most sensitive diagnostic test in sepsis is XIIa-dependent fibrinolysis. Plasminogen and PAI-I activity changes are mostly present inpatient with MOF and septic shock. The 28-day survival rate was 60% in MOF and septic shock groups and 95% in no MOF groups. A raised D-dimer concentration was found in 75% of septic patients.
