Study Summary

Tranexamic acid (TXA) and epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) have been reported to reduce blood loss in the cardiac surgery literature but they have not been reported in use head-to-head in the orthopedic surgery literature. In a randomized, double-blind, prospective study we believe that TXA will be more effective than both EACA and placebo at reducing blood loss for corrective spinal surgery.

Interventions
