NCT ID NCT03431805
First seen May 22, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether giving tranexamic acid (TXA) during a C-section can prevent severe bleeding (postpartum hemorrhage). Over 4,500 women having a planned or unplanned C-section at 34 weeks or later took part. The drug was compared to a placebo to see if it reduced the need for blood transfusions and kept blood loss under 1 liter.
