2016, Journal of InfectionCitation Excerpt :Meningococcal sepsis is frequently associated with a procoagulant state, with the attendant risk of the development of microthrombi within the peripheral circulation. Over the last few decades it has been shown that these patients are often deficient in protein C, protein S, and antithrombin III,199–201 have a defective endothelial protein C activation pathway202 and have both low and dysfunctional platelets.203–205 Patients with bleeding and overt DIC (indicated by low platelets, low fibrinogen and elevated clotting times) should be treated according to established management guidelines.206

2014, Thrombosis ResearchCitation Excerpt :The majority of the samples (21/23) were collected between 1985 and 1990. Plasma was prepared from citrated whole blood (0.129 M citrate, Vacutainer®, Becton and Dickinson, Maylan Cedex, France), immediately centrifuged at 1,400 g, 10 min, aliquoted and stored frozen at − 70 °C [19]. LPS was measured in plasma from heparinized (15 U/mL blood) vacuum tubes (Becton and Dickinson, Maylan Cedex, France) or from EndoTube ET (30 U/mL blood, Chromogenix (CoaChrom Diagnostica GmbH, Vienna, Austria)), using a chromogenic Limulus amebocyte lysate assay as previously described.
