Podcast 242: Tranexamic acid saves lives after traumatic bleeds
Category: Health

Description:

Tranexamic acid, which frustrates clot dissolution, has been shown to reduce death from intracranial bleeding in a large international placebo-controlled trial — “CRASH-3.”

Ali Raja and Joe Elia host a lively chat with Ian Roberts, the co-chair of the trial’s writing committee, who, in addition to chastising the hosts’ seeming fascination with P-values, recounts a story from early in his training that first stirred his devotion to preventing bleeding-related death after trauma.
