Haemostasis in the microvasculature of the rabbit mesentery, effects of some pharmacological agents of current interest in haemostasis and thrombosis.

A study has been performed to evaluate the effect on haemostatic plug formation in the rabbit mesenteric microcirculation of some principally different pharmacological substances of current interest in thrombosis research. It seems as if agents which have a potential value in the prophylaxis of venous thrombosis also modify haemostasis in our experimental model.
