First seen Apr 12, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study looked at how well the body breaks down blood clots in people with sepsis, a life-threatening infection. Researchers tested 100 critically ill patients using a special blood test to find those with a 'fibrinolysis shutdown' — where clot breakdown is too slow. The goal was to learn how common this problem is and how it relates to other clotting issues.
