Blood samples from 17 sub;ects were analyzed with the use of the thrombelastograph. After 600 mg. aspirin there was a significant prolongation of the reaction time, initial clotting speed, and total coagulation time. There was no alteration either in the maximum clot elasticity or in the time taken to reach this value, nor was there any change in clot retraction.
