Given TXA is coming on board shortly.
Is there any role in the administration of TXA for the pt in traumatic cardiac arrest, given we have performed all other interventions already (CPR, hemorrhage control, etc).
Thank you for your question. TXA works best in a diffuse bleed as opposed to penetrating which is typically what we see in a traumatic cardiac arrest. There would be no harm in giving it, but much like we discovered with GI bleeds, it is of no benefit.
