RESUMO

The occurrence of a severe generalized haemorrhagic state in an obstetric case due to a heparin-like anticoagulant is described. This appeared in the post-partum period apparently following a compatible blood transfusion. The pattern of results found in conventional laboratory tests for elucidating acute blood coagulation disorders is described, and the distinction between heparinaemia and the defibrination syndrome emphasized.
