Background The functional dynamics of coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) vary due to the pathology and severity of various underlying diseases. Conventional measurements of hemostasis such as thrombin-antithrombin complex, plasmin-alpha 2-plasmin-inhibitor complex, and fibrinogen-fibrin degradation products may not always reflect critical pathophysiologic mechanisms in DIC. This article aims to clarify the pathology of sepsis-associated DIC using assessment of comprehensive coagulation and fibrinolysis.Methods Plasma samples were obtained from 57 patients with sepsis-associated DIC at the time of initial diagnosis. Hemostasis parameters were quantified by clot-fibrinolysis waveform analysis (CFWA) and thrombin/plasmin generation assays (T/P-GA). The results were expressed as ratios relative to normal plasma.Results CFWA demonstrated that the maximum coagulation velocity (|min1|) ratio modestly increased to median 1.40 (min-max: 0.10-2.60) but the maximum fibrinolytic velocity (|FL-min1|) ratio decreased to 0.61 (0-1.19). T/P-GA indicated that the peak thrombin (Th-Peak) ratio moderately decreased to 0.71 (0.22-1.20), whereas the peak plasmin (Plm-Peak) ratio substantially decreased to 0.35 (0.02-1.43). Statistical comparisons identified a correlation between |min1| and Th-Peak ratios ( rho =0.55, p
