Clinical InformationClinical
Purpura Fulminans
a severe, rapidly fatal reaction occurring most commonly in children following an infectious illness. it is characterized by large, rapidly spreading skin hemorrhages, fever, or shock. purpura fulminans often accompanies or is triggered by disseminated intravascular coagulation.Waterhouse-Friderichsen Syndrome
a condition of hemorrhage and necrosis of the adrenal gland. it is characterized by rapidly developing adrenal insufficiency; hypotension; and widespread cutaneous purpura.Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation
a disorder characterized by procoagulant substances entering the general circulation causing a systemic thrombotic process. the activation of the clotting mechanism may arise from any of a number of disorders. a majority of the patients manifest skin lesions, sometimes leading to purpura fulminans.
Patient EducationClinical
Bleeding Disorders
Normally, if you get hurt, your body forms a blood clot to stop the bleeding. For blood to clot, your body needs cells called platelets and proteins known as clotting factors. If you have a bleeding disorder, you either do not have enough platelets or clotting factors or they don't work the way they should.

Footnotes
[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
