[Arteriovenous differential in the indices of hemocoagulation homeostasis in patients with acute myocardial infarct with a protracted course and cardiogenic shock].

Venous and arterial coagulation and fibrinolytic activity, particularly total hemostatic potential, its plasma and platelet constituents, and functional platelet properties were examined within the first hours of acute myocardial infarction in 106 patients. Those were divided into groups with uncomplicated, recurrent and spread myocardial infarction, and with cardiogenic shock. Early signs of disseminated intravascular coagulation were registered within the first hours of the disease in the venous (more prominently) and arterial (less prominently) channels. True cardiogenic shock is associated with more apparent symptoms of the disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome in venous and arterial blood.
