Tranexamic acid in bleeding

Tranexamic acid in trauma and other acute haemorrhage.

Key point

Tranexamic acid does not affect all-cause mortality, functional outcomes, neurological impairment, or hematoma expansion in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, despite reducing hematoma volume.

How these numbers are counted

PubMed query, searched in titles and abstracts by publication date:

"tranexamic acid"[tiab] AND (trauma*[tiab] OR emergency[tiab] OR hemorrhag*[tiab] OR haemorrhag*[tiab])

Trials: ClinicalTrials.gov studies first submitted in each 12-month window that match the same terms. A query can miss synonyms or catch unrelated papers, so treat counts as approximate.
