| fibrin fibrinogen degradation products | <chemical> Soluble protein fragments formed by the proteolytic action of plasmin on fibrin or fibrinogen. Fdp and their complexes profoundly impair the haemostatic process and are a major cause of haemorrhage in intravascular coagulation and fibrinolysis. Pharmacological action: antithrombins. (12 Dec 1998) |

| fibrinogen-fibrin conversion syndrome | <syndrome> A syndrome characterised by hypofibrinogenaemia with incoagulable blood; it may be seen in abruptio placentae, prolonged retention of a dead foetus in an Rh-isosensitised mother, haemolytic blood reactions, bilateral renal cortical necrosis, and cases of trauma.
