Nebulized tranexamic acid for reducing bleeding during sinus surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This early-phase study tests if giving tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps blood clot) through a mist into the nose and sinuses during sinus surgery can reduce bleeding. It is designed for adults who are otherwise healthy and undergoing a common type of sinus surgery called functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
