AbstractSepsis is noted for producing disruptions in hemostasis. The patient-related risk factors, clinical presentation, and management strategies are dependent upon the presiding disorder. Platelet deficiency and dysfunction, hepatic protein disorders, and disseminated intravascular coagulation are the most common clinical problems. Nursing care focuses on prevention, early recognition, and supportive care for the thrombotic or bleeding patient. An overview of the disorders of hemostasis in sepsis and nursing care of these patients are described in this article.
