Blood 5´-nucleotidase activity in gestosis complicated pregnancy

The data on the role of disseminated intravascular coagulation in the occurrence of ischemic lesions in severe forms of this pathology are attracting increasing attention in the study of the pathogenesis of pregnant gestosis. V. P. Skipetrov suggests that coagulopathy developing in pregnant gestosis is the result of increased thromboplastic activity of the blood in response to damaging agents. Direct evidence has been obtained that severe forms of pregnancy gestosis are accompanied by a chronic form of disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome (DIC). Thromboplastinemia acts as one of the initial moments of hemostasis system activation, which underlies thrombotic complications.
