Contributor: Aaron Lessen MD Educational Pearls: Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a common medication to achieve hemostasis in a variety of conditions Patients visiting the ED for gross hematuria (between March 2022 and September 2022) were treated with intravesical TXA 1 g tranexamic acid in 100 mL NS via Foley catheter Clamped Foley for 15 minutes Subsequent continuous bladder irrigation, as is standard in most EDs Compared with a cohort of patients visiting the ED for a similar concern between March 2021 and September 2021, the TXA patients had: A shorter median length of stay in the ED (274 min vs. 411 mins, P < 0.001). A shorter median duration of Foley catheter placement (145 min vs. 308 mins, P < 0.001) Fewer revisits after ED discharge (2.3% vs. 12.3%, P = 0.031) References 1. Choi H, Kim DW, Jung E, et al.
