First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests whether a nebulized mist of tranexamic acid (TXA) can safely stop bleeding in children after tonsil removal. About 12 kids aged 2-17 who come to the ER with bleeding will receive the mist. The goal is to see if this approach can reduce the need for repeat surgery and blood transfusions, making recovery easier and safer.
