Description

A variety of papers, including CRASH-2, suggest that TXA can decrease mortality if given early for patients at risk of significant hemorrhage but exclude patients with TBI. CRASH-3 was a large, multi-national placebo-controlled randomized trial comparing TXA, 1 gm over 10 minutes, followed by a subsequent 1 gm infusion over the next 8 hours. So… what do we think of the paper’s results, and do we believe TXA should be given in TBI patients?
