TXA vs Saline to Prevent Bleeding After Lung Transplant Biopsy
Treatments studied
Part of Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a medication called tranexamic acid (TXA) can help prevent bleeding after a lung transplant biopsy. It compares TXA to a saltwater solution (saline) to see if it reduces the need for procedures to stop bleeding.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a single or double lung transplant.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are not currently bleeding or at high risk for bleeding.
- You do not have severe liver disease, kidney failure, or severe pulmonary hypertension.
- You are not allergic to tranexamic acid (TXA).

This trial studies whether a single dose or multiple doses of tranexamic acid (TXA) can reduce the chance you need a blood transfusion after spine fusion surgery. It also compares two different ways TXA may be given (by mouth and through a vein) to see which approach works best and is safe.
This trial tests if tranexamic acid, a medicine that helps blood clot, can safely reduce bleeding during adult liver transplant surgery.
This trial studies whether giving tranexamic acid (TXA) based on patient needs during heart surgery works better than a one-size-fits-all approach. It may help reduce bleeding during surgery, while monitoring for clotting-related side effects.
This trial tests a medicine called tranexamic acid (TXA) given right before major colorectal surgery to see if it helps reduce bleeding. If it works, it could make surgery safer for people like you.
This trial tests if taking tranexamic acid (TXA) pills for a week after knee replacement surgery helps reduce bleeding and the need for blood transfusions. You may qualify if you are having a planned first-time knee replacement with spinal anesthesia and are already scheduled for standard care.
This trial tests whether a medicine called TXA (tranexamic acid) can help reduce bleeding during breast reconstruction using your own abdominal tissue. It's for women having this surgery at UVA Medical Center.
