Randomized Controlled TrialTranexamic acid for the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage after cesarean section: a double-blind randomization trial.
Our purpose in conducting this study was to determine the efficacy of tranexamic acid (TXA) in reducing blood loss in patients after cesarean section (CS). ⋯ Treatment with TXA is effective in reducing blood loss in patients undergoing CS. Although the study was not adequately powered to address safety issues, the observed side effects were mild and transient.
