In 185 patients suffering from increased thrombotic tendency and in 40 healthy individuals, the following parameters were assayed by the aid of chromogenic substrates: antithrombin III, plasminogen, immediate and total antiplasmin. Furthermore, the vascular activator of plasminogen and the spontaneous aggregation of platelets were examined by other methods. Alterations of plasmatic parameters which are likely to cause an increased thrombotic tendency were detected in 10% of all cases. In patients suffering from arterial thrombotic manifestations hyperactive platelets were found in 42%.
