(3) Plasma concentration of D-dimer of SAP inpatients in CT grade D, E stage were significantly higher than that in CT grade B, C stage (1.18±0.02 mg/L, 1.23±0.01 mg/L vs. 0.90±0.02 mg/L, 0.93±0.01 mg/L, all P<0.05). (4) Plasma concentration of D-dimer of SAP in inpatients with multiple organ failure (MOF) at 24 hours and 48 hours were significantly higher than that in inpatients without MOF (24 hours: 1.26±0.02 mg/L vs. 0.93±0.02 mg/L, 48 hours:1.25±0.02 mg/L vs. 0.93±0.02 mg/L, both P<0.05).\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000Plasma concentration of the D-dimer is significantly increased in SAP patients, and is related to the severity. The first plasma concentration of D-dimer of SAP after admission can well reflect severity of patient's condition.","PeriodicalId":23992,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo wei zhong bing ji jiu yi xue = Chinese critical care medicine = Zhongguo weizhongbing jijiuyixue","volume":"37 1","pages":"658-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75842844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
