Our previous study suggested that plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 (PAI‐1) levels of ≥83 ng/mL were associated with poor outcomes in patients with sepsis. The results indicate that high PAI‐1 levels (≥83 ng/mL) were associated with increased risks of coagulopathy, organ failure, and mortality. Patients with sepsis and PAI‐1 levels of ≥83 ng/mL tended to develop disseminated intravascular coagulation within 1 week after the sepsis diagnosis.
