Components of the haemostatic mechanism in twin pregnancy.
Components of the haemostatic mechanism were measured at intervals throughout pregnancy in 11 patients with twins and compared with a group of 21 patients with singleton pregnancies. Mean plasma fibrinogen levels were consistently (but not significantly) elevated in the mothers of twins while other parameters showed no differences.
