Clot retraction time measures the time taken for a blood clot to contract and shrink in size. It is an important indicator of platelet function and clotting efficiency, as well as in assessing certain bleeding disorders and the effectiveness of anticoagulant therapy. Longer clot retraction times may indicate clotting problems, while shorter times may suggest hypercoagulability.
Aspirin is a common substance that decreases the body's ability to clot by inhibiting platelet function. Other substances like anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, heparin) can also reduce clotting by interfering with the clotting process.

Immobilization of the area that is bleeding causes the clot to clot faster.
