In thrombin-induced DIC, acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) prevents the strong initial fall in platelet count and the obturation of the microvasculature of the lung with platelet aggregates. During the DIC reaction increasing inhibition of aggregability of circulating platelets against collagen and ADP is observed. Furthermore, ASA prevents the increase in the plasma haemoglobin level caused by DIC.
