Summary

This study tests whether a medicated mist (nebulized tranexamic acid) can safely stop bleeding in children after tonsil removal. About 30 kids aged 2 to 17 who experience bleeding will receive the mist instead of going back to the operating room. The goal is to see if this approach can avoid repeat surgery and its risks, such as anesthesia complications and emotional distress.
