Formula
DIC Score = Σ (Platelet < 100: +1, D-dimer > 500: +3, PT > 3s: +1, Fibrinogen < 200: +1)
- ISTH scoring system for DIC
- Score ≥ 5 = overt DIC
- Score < 3 = not DIC
DIC Screening
Inputs
- Platelet Count (K/uL): 100 count
- D-Dimer (ug/L): 1000 ug/L
- PT Prolongation (seconds): 3 seconds
- Fibrinogen (mg/dL): 250 mg/dL
Plt 100 (+1), D-dimer 1000 (+3), PT 3 (+1), Fib 250 (0) = Score 5 = Overt DIC diagnosis.
