Tranexamic acid speed and blood pressure during planned C-section
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving the drug tranexamic acid (TXA) slowly or quickly during a planned C-section affects your blood pressure. It may help doctors choose the safest way to give this medicine, which is used to reduce bleeding after delivery.

This study compares two medications (tranexamic acid and oxytocin) given directly into the uterus during a planned cesarean section to see which works better at reducing blood loss. It is for women with a single, full-term pregnancy and no major health complications.
This study tests whether applying a medicine called tranexamic acid directly to the uterus during a scheduled cesarean can reduce bleeding. It may help women who are having their first or second cesarean delivery.
This trial tests whether giving a medicine called tranexamic acid before a cesarean section (c-section) can help reduce the amount of blood loss during the surgery. It may be an option for women having either a planned or unplanned c-section.
This trial studies whether tranexamic acid, a medicine that helps blood clot, can prevent postpartum hemorrhage (heavy bleeding after delivery) in people having a planned C-section or likely vaginal delivery after 34 weeks. It may help lower the risk of dangerous bleeding around the time of birth.
