Clinical Trials
A Preliminary Study of a New Tranexamic Acid Dosing Schedule for Cardiac Surgery
Tranexamic acid is administered intravenously to prevent bleeding associated with cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass. We have developed an assay for tranexamic acid. We have deve...
TRial to EvaluAte Tranexamic Acid Therapy in Thrombocytopenia
The purpose of this study is to test whether giving tranexamic acid to patients receiving treatment for blood cancers reduces the risk of bleeding or death, and the need for platelet trans...
Prospective Trial of Tranexamic Acid in Cardiac Surgery
Tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic drug, is wildly used in cardiac surgeries to decrease perioperative bleeding and allogenic transfusion. But the optimum dose of tranexamic acid is stil...
Non-Idiopathic Scoliosis Treated With Tranexamic Acid
Investigation of tranexamic acid (TXA) for reducing perioperative blood loss and transfusion requirement in pediatric patients with secondary scoliosis undergoing posterior spinal fusion.
The investigators primary objective is to compare the effectiveness of epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA) and tranexamic acid (TA) in reducing bleeding and transfusion in cardiac surgery, wi...

Treatment of melasma using tranexamic acid: what's known and what's next.
Tranexamic acid is a procoagulant agent that is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treatment of menorrhagia and to prevent hemorrhage in patients with hemophilia undergoing tooth extr...
The reductions of perioperative blood loss and inflammatory response are important in total knee arthroplasty. Tranexamic acid reduced blood loss and the inflammatory response in several studies. Howe...
Among the various pharmacological options to decrease peri-operative bleeding, tranexamic acid appears to be one of the most interesting. Several trials have consistently documented the efficacy of th...
The efficacy of tranexamic acid (TXA) plus drain-clamping in reducing blood loss after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to identify whether combined tranexamic ...
Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Tranexamic Acid
Antifibrinolytic hemostatic used in severe hemorrhage.
Esterification
The process of converting an acid into an alkyl or aryl derivative. Most frequently the process consists of the reaction of an acid with an alcohol in the presence of a trace of mineral acid as catalyst or the reaction of an acyl chloride with an alcohol. Esterification can also be accomplished by enzymatic processes.
Oxaloacetic Acids
A class of ketodicarboxylic acids derived from oxalic acid. Oxaloacetic acid is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle and is converted to ASPARTIC ACID by a transamination reaction.
Argininosuccinic Acid
This amino acid is formed during the urea cycle from citrulline, aspartate and ATP. This reaction is catalyzed by argininosuccinic acid synthetase.
Ascorbate Peroxidases
Peroxidases that utilize ASCORBIC ACID as an electron donor to reduce HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to WATER. The reaction results in the production of monodehydroascorbic acid and DEHYDROASCORBIC ACID.
