Topical Instillation of Tranexamic Aacid in Bronchoscopy to Decrease Bleeding During Entobronchial & Transbronchial Biopsiy: a Prospective Double Blind Placebo Controlled Study

• Status: Unknown status
• Trial end date: 2020-12-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Bleeding during transbronchial ro endobronchial biopsy is rather a common complication.

Mostly this is an insignificant bleeding, but in 3% of the biopsies there is a substantial amount of bleeding that requires a special treatment or follow up.

The goal of this study is to examine whether submission of tranexamic acid during the biopsy could diminish the amount of bleeding.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No
