Septic shock can trigger a cascade of events leading to widespread clotting and bleeding, which are characteristic of DIC. Additionally, prolonged hospitalization and the use of invasive procedures such as central lines and Foley catheters can contribute to the risk of DIC. These Risks can be lowered with proper hand hygiene and infection control protocols. (Complications of Sickle Cell Disease, 2022).
