Antithrombin III in normal pregnancy.
Plasma antithrombin III (AT III) was determined in 94 women during and after normal pregnancy employing an automated amidolytic technique. The patients were selected on the following criteria: no toxaemia, spontaneous delivery at term, birth-weight above the 10th percentile and discharged with a healthy baby. AT III levels during pregnancy and early puerperium were not lower than own control values obtained 6-8 weeks after delivery.
