Open publisher page 30 citations

Abstract

Our experience with consumptive coagulopathy associated with preeclampsia at North Carolina Baptist Hospital is presented. All cases of recognized consumptive coagulopathy on the obstetric service from 1969 to 1975 are reviewed and the associated obstetric entities given. Two cases of consumptive coagulopathy complicating severe preeclampsia are presented. Consumptive coagulopathy occurred in 9.1% of eclamptic patients and in 2.6% of severe preeclamptic patients. No previous incidence figures were found in the literature.
