title: [Coagulation parameters in patients with hypertension].
abstract: Thrombelastography in the whole blood and determination of antithrombin III by means of chromogenic substrates were performed in a group of 10 patients with hypertension. The results of the thrombelastograms showed a slight shift toward hypercoagulability, as revealed by a significant increase in the thrombodynamic potential index. There was no significant change in antithrombin activity as compared with control group.
