Cheap drug may replace costly spray for burn graft surgery
NCT ID NCT06379724
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two medications applied to the wound bed before placing a skin graft in people with burns. The goal is to see if a low-cost drug called tranexamic acid works as well as the standard thrombin spray to prevent blood clots under the graft. About 62 adults with small to moderate burns will take part. If successful, the cheaper option could reduce hospital costs without harming outcomes.
