Abstract
Comment: It is of course well known that aspirin reduces platelet adhesiveness, and this paper shows the usefulness of the drug in hemorrhagic shock. The limitation to the practical application of these observations lies in the fact that, with the exception of the intraarterial injection of a suspension of aspirin, no suitable method has as yet been devised to administer it other than by mouth, a route which may not be always available in severely shocked patients, either because they are unable to retain substances administered in this way, or because they may be unable to absorb them adequately, even if instilled into the stomach by way of an indwelling tube.
