Abstract

The CRASH-2 and CRASH-3 trials evaluated the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in trauma patients, assessing the outcomes of mortality reduction as well as thromboembolic outcomes. Neither study included any significant number of US trauma patients. The discussed manuscript is a retrospective study of adult trauma patients, in the US, who received TXA and assess overall mortality and thromboembolic outcomes. We review the manuscript as well as the Hot-Off-the-Press podcast and social media commentary.
